## b-first · Reserve park-map icons

**Complete source (staff reference):** Original pretend question: which ONE reserve park-map icons option would you choose? Options, in order: bench, gate, tree. Available replies in order: bench, gate, bench, tree, gate, bench. Eight fictional invitations; six available choices; two no available replies, reason and preference unknown. Each available reply is one choice. No actual survey, visit or child result is supplied.

**Question:** Make or direct a complete list of the available replies. Keep the unavailable replies separate.

**Complete key and accepted variations:** Exact available list: bench, gate, bench, tree, gate, bench; keep two no-response records separate. Source order is useful for tracing but grouping order can differ if all six records are retained exactly once. No invented missing preference/reason.

**Component criterion:** Retains each available reply exactly once and marks unavailable status; categories have intelligible meaning.

**Specific unrelated next teaching:** If a repeated name is counted only once, trace unrelated circle,circle,triangle,square records with broad separate IDs. If category meaning unclear, revise a different pencil/crayon question before another list.

**Question:** Make or direct a table showing each named option and its recorded count.

**Complete key and accepted variations:** Full named table: bench: 3; gate: 2; tree: 1. Check category sum6;6 available+2 unavailable=8 invited. Category labels name choices; frequencies count those replies.

**Component criterion:** Correct option names/frequencies, explicit count check, zero versus missing distinction where relevant.

**Specific unrelated next teaching:** If counts mismatch, map unrelated cloud,sun,cloud,cloud to one mark per record, then total rows against list. Do not hand over this stage's solved table.

**Question:** Which option has most recorded choices? Compare it with the second option in the source option order. How many more? What do the unavailable replies tell us?

**Complete key and accepted variations:** bench has most recorded choices, 3; gate has 2, so 1 more. Two unavailable replies establish only unavailable preference/reason, not dislike or support. No claim about everyone/other populations.

**Component criterion:** Supported comparison with correct difference and unknowns kept unknown.

**Specific unrelated next teaching:** If unknowns become a preference, contrast unrelated bird2/fish1/no reply2. If difference confused, pair two versus four named tokens and describe unmatched count.

**Question:** Make, describe or direct one useful statement or sign for this pretend choice. Explain what it helps and what stays unknown.

**Complete key and accepted variations:** Open useful statement/sign: e.g. “bench had most of these six recorded choices; two invited replies are unavailable.” It names the question/source scope and can support a tentative pretend recommendation. No single wording/layout; an actual child decision/direction must be observed rather than inferred from a copied model.

**Component criterion:** Useful contextual statement with actual own choice and bounded scope.

**Specific unrelated next teaching:** If statement says everyone/best, use a different fictional stripe/spot table and name source-limited choice versus value judgment. If useful, invite a new ordinary reader question without inventing actual use.

**Record honestly:** full source familiarity/exposure; question and actual first response/method; reading/scribing/handling access; mathematical hints/device answers; observed child choices versus adult operations; actual teaching/source/date; interval before next source; initial versus supported revision; unattempted/uncaptured fields. No hypothetical learner score or attained level.
