# N17 · Creator or recording date?

**A small start:** Match each useful heading and purpose to its speaker.

## Complete supplied source

Original fiction. Nessa says, “Put the creator beside each music-page title so I can find who wrote it.” Ravi says, “Put the recording date beside each recording title so I can find when it was recorded.” A pretend folder has a written music page and a separately labelled recording. It supplies neither actual music nor a claim that writing and recording dates are the same.

## Choose your way

Tell it, sign, use AAC, point to the words, make broad marks or direct a helper. Two reachable paper spaces are enough if wanted. Start with one clue, keep it private, rest, pass or stop. A helper can read dates or source names neutrally and write the child’s exact chosen words; record any supplied idea separately. These are choices, not fixed learning styles or diagnostic labels.

**Teacher invitation:** Read both exact statements. Let the child keep creator/writing job apart from recording-date job and explain the named speaker’s purpose. A drawn or spoken arrangement is enough.

**One worked possibility, after an own attempt or if wanted:** Nessa wants creator by music-page title to find who wrote it. Ravi wants recording date by recording title to find recording time. Neither date is automatically the making date of the page; a creator name is not a recording date.

**What stays unknown:** No actual lookup result, full dates or all-readers preference is supplied.

**Next teaching:** Offer a fresh invented reader who asks when a page entered the folder. Invite a collection-date heading and explain why a recording date alone may not answer that different question.

**Keep a useful trace if needed:** chosen source/question, exact child meaning, actual helper reading/writing/moving/operation, content help and one useful next step. Missing or unoffered evidence is not a failure; a fictional action is not the child’s performance. There is no length, handwriting, speed or public-sharing requirement.
