Make from a blank, ordinary form, not from a copied artwork. The [practice stimuli](STIMULUS-CARDS.md) and [six original aids](print/TEXT-ALTERNATIVES.md) give an object even if you cannot make a prop. Choose to sketch, arrange paper, use a raised-line/tactile version, type, speak or use a partner to scribe; each route asks you to notice, choose and justify the **same** art decision. You may use a quiet space, a pause or larger text without explaining why. Personal context can be fictional or impersonal. No classmate photo, family story or personal disclosure is required. For Day 5/10 see the new sheet first; teacher feedback comes after.

| Day | Evidence you make |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | A thumbnail of A, two observed features and one clearly labelled interpretation. |
| 2 | Two views, one changed and one stable feature. |
| 3 | Two line trials, with a named mark decision and intended emphasis. |
| 4 | Two crops, one selected, with a visible gain and visible loss. |
| 5 | First response to [new paper arch G](STUDENT-CHECKS.md#day-5-check-a--paper-arch-file-g). |
| 6 | Flat and low-relief material trials plus a cause/effect note. |
| 7 | Source fact/interpretation/question log and an independent decision for A. |
| 8 | Two reductions with observed trace, removed feature and intended emphasis. |
| 9 | Three-frame order and F's four-part folio trace. |
| 10 | First response to [new stepped paper H](STUDENT-CHECKS.md#day-10-check-b--stepped-paper-file-h). |

**Folio trace template:** `I could see ___` → `I changed ___ by ___` → `a viewer might read ___ because ___` → `next I will test ___`. If you viewed the linked gallery record, add creator, title, year, QAGOMA URL and access date separately. A viewer may read the work differently. A source credit records research; it does not permit tracing or copying an artwork.
