# One maker’s kite note

## Complete fictional source

This complete fictional editing source states the intended meanings before the child edits. One maker named Ana owns a paper kite. The draft label says ‘Anas kite’. A second draft sentence says ‘I do not want the star moved’; the writer wants the shorter contraction of ‘do not’. A group note says ‘The maker like the blue star’; its intended meaning concerns one maker’s present preference. Two further sentences report different jobs: ‘The paper has a tear near the corner’ and ‘Ana likes the blue star decoration’. A reader needs a short repair-and-decoration report. There is no real flying-kite or repair-tool instruction. The child may use the complete source while editing and can explain meaning through usual communication. A supplied final model is kept on the staff side, not inside the neutral source.

## Four own invitations

### Q1

Edit ‘Anas kite’ so the phrase shows the stated one-owner meaning; explain the mark’s job.

### Q2

Write the shorter contraction of ‘do not’ in the draft sentence and explain its apostrophe.

### Q3

Edit ‘The maker like the blue star’ for the one maker’s present preference.

### Q4

Put the tear and decoration information into two related groups with useful labels.

## Ways to respond

Adult reading of the full source, usual communication, larger print, breaks, pointing and exact dictation are allowed; record which. Do not supply a component’s worked answer or criterion before a genuine first response. Reading aloud means this case cannot by itself demonstrate independent decoding; adult pen work cannot demonstrate handwriting.
