Success: distinguish an omission from a negative fact. Use perspective mat.
- Spot · 2 min. Ask whether Text A gives paid break rules; learners mark
given / absent. - Model · 4 min. Write “The notice does not state break rules.” Compare the unsupported “The team refuses paid breaks.” Explain that absence cannot establish a refusal.
- Guided sort · 5 min. Sort travel support, role access, $24 base and weekend multiplier into
stated / not stated. Ask which two are useful questions rather than conclusions. - Independent revision · 7 min. Give learners a flawed sentence: “Because the poster omits travel costs, nobody can afford Saturday.” They recast it as an accurate observation plus a question, using text evidence.
- Audit · 4 min. Peer circles any invented actor, fact or universal word; writer decides whether to revise and explains why.
- Exit · 3 min. Key revision: “The poster does not state travel support; a reader could ask about it before deciding.” Other bounded versions accepted.
