Little Weather Desk · complete paper twin
Adult reads a selected whole ordinary source. Offer broad paper or usual communication; no printing is needed. Label nine optional spaces with the field names above or hold a private spoken sequence. A child can choose source/job/question, then an own tentative idea before unknown release, a first clue and if-plan. Use a separate scrap for a kept version with actual source/stage/actor labels; do not erase a first contribution and call the replacement the old prediction. Later space stays empty if there is no later clue. If an actual old record exists, child can compare it with a new clue; if absent, record comparison unelicited. Ask a next question or finish. One meaning is enough.
For two wanted kept versions, use two independently labelled scraps. Child may direct an adult's marks or choose a private spoken comparison. A replacement is explicit and the old scrap is no longer the active version; do not silently overwrite historical evidence needed for a prediction comparison. Actual educator records remain separately private and accurately dated. The paper route establishes only the meaning/actions actually contributed, not proof a digital lifecycle works.
1. Source label

7. A later clue, if available
8. My comparison
9. My next question
Use two independently labelled scraps if wanted. After a current edit or slot replacement, mark old comparisons obsolete and compare the actual two versions afresh. Do not erase historical evidence needed for a first/new comparison. Paper is not digitally erased; private teacher records are separate.
