Two optional 10–15 minute sessions, unpiloted; one session or a smaller separate job is fine.
A reusable paper/material kit and a whole-source instruction label naming the useful quantity, any leftover and a check.
Plain paper, a pencil or child-directed marks, safe large pieces and named places. A place can be a drawn box or spoken label. No food, real money, purchase, printer, account or device required. A helper moves only the piece/place the child chooses.
Twenty whole shape cards are available. Each complete kit needs six; make as many kits as possible and leave leftovers aside. How many complete kits and leftover cards are there?
Name 20 as the whole available collection and 6 shape cards as the required size of each complete pack. Take exactly 6 at a time into a new named pack; check that size before calling it complete. There are 3 complete packs and 2 whole shape cards aside. 6+6+6=18; 18+2=20. The requested number 3 names packs; 6 names members in one pack. A leftover group of fewer than 6 is not another complete pack. Count or rebuild all original members to check; repeated addition, known groups or a supported subtraction model are possible taught methods, not a required memorised division fact.
Can a reader identify the whole source, requested quantity, equality/complete-size condition, any leftover and a valid whole-collection check? Record source exposure and assistance. No actual helper success is presumed.
Nineteen whole shape cards are available. Every complete kit needs six cards. Make as many complete kits as possible and leave leftovers aside. How many complete kits and spare cards are there?
Keep the first guide. Read this entire separate job and let the child try before using its adult model. Make a separately named guide; compare the source, useful result unit and full check. Do not treat the changed collection as proof of unseen transfer.
Name 19 as the whole available collection and 6 shape cards as the required size of each complete pack. Take exactly 6 at a time into a new named pack; check that size before calling it complete. There are 3 complete packs and 1 whole shape card aside. 6+6+6=18; 18+1=19. The requested number 3 names packs; 6 names members in one pack. A leftover group of fewer than 6 is not another complete pack. Count or rebuild all original members to check; repeated addition, known groups or a supported subtraction model are possible taught methods, not a required memorised division fact.
Let the child mix objects, a drawing, speech, signing, AAC, tactile marks or an exact directed helper. Read the whole source and allow processing time. Offer a quiet seated route and a pause. Record reading/motor access separately from hints that choose a mathematical step. These are choices, not fixed learning styles or neurotype assignments.
