Teacher copy: This page may include teaching prompts or answer keys. Answer keys in this public library can be viewed by anyone. Give learners a clean prompt, use checks as formative evidence, and change a case locally when prior access matters.

Learner choices

Goal: independently transfer order, simplest form and part-of-all reasoning to new marker data. 25 = 2 + 3 + 12 + 5 + 3.

  1. 0–2: Explain that this public check is fresh relative to cards but not a secure exam or QCAA school assessment. Collect first independent work before feedback.
  2. 2–5: Give the exact prompt with usual neutral access supports, but no demonstration with its new values.
  3. 5–17: Routes: handle labelled triangle/circle counters; annotate ratio/fraction boxes on blank paper; type, write, dictate or AAC the same labelled ratios, fractions and check. Preserve first work and note any content cue separately.
  4. 17–22: After collection, compare a different two-shape example, explicitly naming the total before a fraction.
  5. 22–25: Choose one next move from the public teacher key. Move: if prior answer access matters, set a new local parallel prompt.

Alternative domains: invented gallery icons or stage symbols after collection. Optional/home: explain the difference between A:B and A:(A+B) with made-up counts. After-check swaps.
