The cardboard gallery cards · staff case

Eligibility and exposure

Show the complete matched source only when beginning this case. If the child has already seen its staff worked answers, practised it, or received answer-level help, record that exposure and use it as supported/formative teaching rather than an independent first response. Later is a new source, not an automatic progress test.

Help and actual evidence

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.

Complete neutral source

Two complete original fictional texts describe a cardboard gallery. Text A is a visitor route note: ‘Shell drawings: go through the folded door and follow the dotted line to the shell table.’ Its image description shows the dotted line and a large sign labelled SHELL TABLE. The source gives no size of another sign. Text B is a story: ‘The paper shell rolled past the door, giggling as the dotted line tickled its edge.’ A visitor wants to find the shell drawings. Another reader wants a funny character event. The texts share a place but have different jobs. The image description also shows a square marker beside the folded door; Text A’s words do not name that marker. There is no real gallery, local direction or claim that a shell can giggle. Any added recommendation should stay distinguishable from the source’s words.

C-first-Q1

Invitation

Choose a text for the visitor finding the shell drawings and explain one supplied clue.

Component criterion

Chooses A and supports its finding purpose using route labels/instructions or matching path image.

Staff example after an attempt

Text A fits the finding job because it tells the route to the shell table. The story’s giggling event serves a different purpose.

Judgement limit

Use this component-specific description with the actual response and recorded help. No point total, A–E level, diagnosis, causal gain or independent-exposure claim.

C-first-Q2

Invitation

Explain what the large labelled sign emphasises. Do not invent another sign size.

Component criterion

Connects the large SHELL TABLE sign to the destination, with no unsupported size comparison.

Staff example after an attempt

It emphasises the shell-table destination. The source describes a large sign but gives no smaller sign to compare.

Judgement limit

Use this component-specific description with the actual response and recorded help. No point total, A–E level, diagnosis, causal gain or independent-exposure claim.

C-first-Q3

Invitation

Name one meaning the image adds beyond Text A’s words.

Component criterion

Identifies the square door marker or another explicitly supplied visual relation absent from the words.

Staff example after an attempt

The square marker beside the door is shown by the image description but is not named in Text A’s route sentence.

Judgement limit

Use this component-specific description with the actual response and recorded help. No point total, A–E level, diagnosis, causal gain or independent-exposure claim.

C-first-Q4

Invitation

Write or say one recommendation to a story reader and signal that it is your recommendation.

Component criterion

Recommends B for an imaginative/funny event with a source-supported reason, clearly as a personal recommendation.

Staff example after an attempt

‘I recommend Text B if you want a funny event, because the shell giggles.’ is a recommendation, not a new source quote.

Judgement limit

Use this component-specific description with the actual response and recorded help. No point total, A–E level, diagnosis, causal gain or independent-exposure claim.
