# Home 22 · A little paper fit

**Try one tiny turn.**

Prepare: Book and checked ruler, or MODEL book edge 16 cm and paper 20 cm.

Invitation: Estimate an edge, then measure or direct a helper if suitable. Decide whether a paper strip fits; otherwise compare the supplied model.

Adult worked model/check: Model 20 − 16 = 4 cm extra; real results stay as actually read.

Choice and boundary: No scissors needed. Fold/mark only if wanted; adult handles any cutting.

Usual communication, exact scribing, private/untimed work and stopping are welcome. Keep a model answer separate from your child's own attempt; do not correct it silently. Observe one useful reason and choose a new unrelated example if wanted.
