C03 · Complete teaching source

Fictional model guide, paragraph1: The paper creature has two folded feet. A drawn arrow points from each foot to the marked standing place. Paragraph2: Put the drawn feet on the marked places in this paper plan. The writer wants a reader to match the creature to its picture; no balancing trial is reported.

Child invitation

Tell a reader what the arrows mean in this guide.

Staff possible reasoning

The arrows connect each drawn foot with its planned place; they help explain where the plan puts the feet.

Next teaching

Compare a new guide whose arrow points to a label rather than a place; ask what that arrow is doing.

Limit

The guide does not prove the creature will balance or that arrows improve every reader response.
