Day 39 · Give a reader a trustworthy sky guideYear 2 Science · T1 W7–8 · Child / Day 39 · Text version

“Keep a sentence the notes support. Change one that goes too far. Give someone a useful guide.”

Your notes

Fictional exhibition record says same named cluster is beside a frame mark in two model panels. Draft says “You will see these stars beside your bedroom window tonight”. Keep the model's specific positions; replace local future certainty with a model explanation and a next current-source/optional actual-record question. Use a willing real reader only if they agree; imagined feedback remains fiction.

Pick one way

Route1 — Make a pocket guide: Use a reusable folded paper page with question, supported record, source and next check. No craft-quality score. Route2 — Host a quiet help desk: Child communicates a short guide, willing adult asks one question, child keeps/revises with a reason. Route3 — Compare kept/current wording: Use paper or blank Desk; keep original message, edit current, read an exact comparison. It does not automatically grade Science or invent feedback.

You can ask a grown-up to read or write exactly what you tell them. Do a small useful part, rest or pass. A made-up note is not a real sky sighting.
