Blank notes · direct three stationsYear 1 Maths · T1 W9–10 · Choices / Day 47 route 3

Source review complete · local suitability still needs review.

Pretend 26 blank-note marks need three jobs. You can be the director from a quiet place and ask a helper to draw or move.

  1. Choose three station names, such as start, next and save. Point to all three distinct spaces.
  2. Call each waiting member's station once. Your helper removes it from waiting before placing it; a member gets one station, not two.
  3. Ask for a report from each station: how many are there? Check all three, including any deliberately empty station as zero.
  4. Direct an optional changed arrangement, then explain how all three parts still account for the original 26. The stations need not be equal.

Point, speak, sign, use AAC or tell a helper where to put the marks. A quiet private try or pause is fine. No photo, returned homework, purchase or independent drawing/moving is needed.

Grown-up help

Retained ordinary model. 8 + 8 + 10 = 26. Give a model only when useful after the child's first thinking; it is not an independently found response.

Director route. Follow the child's words/signs/AAC choices faithfully; neutral reading and physical operation are different from a maths hint. Use a smaller honest actual amount or pause privately if needed. Below-ten practice cannot establish a full-ten exchange. A narrated proposed move is not an observed physical move.

Full daily plan gives today's exact reasoning and next instruction. This is an ordinary practice model, not a reserved fresh answer. If the total is too large, choose and label a smaller actual collection while keeping the partition purpose. Adult movement follows the child's decisions. Supplied counts are support, not evidence of independently finding that count. If the third part is omitted, put every object in one of three distinct places and audit coverage. If fairness distracts from the target, choose three jobs that deliberately need different amounts.
