Pick the response route that helps you show your own idea: speak, sign, use AAC, point, draw, move a paper piece, make, type or direct a trusted adult where the task allows. You may work quietly or pass on public movement, sound, filming and sharing. The teacher will say when a card is REAL, MODEL, PLAN, or an actual PERFORMANCE/PROGRAM RUN. Keep that label with your work. These activities do not ask for private home, health, identity or access information. Original source cards and text/tactile aid are available; nothing must be bought.

Day 11 — Ask before you map

Write two investigation questions about H1: one answerable by its labels and one needing another source. Name who could help check the second without asking for anyone's private details.

Choose a route: Question cards; oral/AAC; two-column sketch.

Show: Read one useful question and why the map alone is insufficient.

Home/low-material: Use H1 on paper; no local outing or address required.

Day 12 — Record a source, not a guess

Locate H1's entrance arrow and two baskets; record each feature with source title and date. Compare with H2's written note and mark a question where information is missing.

Choose a route: Trace H1; movable labels; dictate source metadata.

Show: Show one annotated map label and a proper source note.

Home/low-material: Use the fictional sheets only; no real place search.

Day 13 — Map and table tell different things

Find the proposed location of the reading mat on H1 and the three proposal options in H3. Explain why H3 cannot locate a route and H1 cannot show an option's stated cost.

Choose a route: Point between formats; tactile grid; spoken comparison.

Show: Name a useful question each format answers and one it cannot.

Home/low-material: Compare the two printed sources; no web access.

Day 14 — Two readers, two priorities

Sort each note into a source-supported fact about H1 and a preference. Explain how the same planned entrance could lead to different priorities and what evidence would test each concern.

Choose a route: Two voice cards; write F/V labels; partner reads a note.

Show: Name both viewpoints fairly and one shared fact.

Home/low-material: Use the fictional note pair; no personal family opinion requested.

Day 15 — What source is missing?

Choose two missing-source requests: a measured path and a voluntary access test are possibilities. Explain who should authorise real data collection and why no classmate must disclose an access need.

Choose a route: Write a request; arrange evidence tokens; speak a question.

Show: Give one specific source request and one privacy boundary.

Home/low-material: Draft a paper source request only; no contacting anyone.

Day 16 — An invented timeline

Order H5's three notes and build an annotated mini-timeline. Explain the documented change in the invented plan and name one thing the timeline cannot explain about why it changed.

Choose a route: Move date cards; draw line; dictate a timeline caption.

Show: Point to earliest/latest and cite the exact note for the change.

Home/low-material: Use H5 cards at home; do not research a family or place.

Day 17 — A proposal table needs a key

Read H3's stated columns and identify which cells have clear units. Compare two proposal viewpoints without deciding from an unlabeled number. Add a question for the author of H3.

Choose a route: Large table; unit tokens; verbal annotation.

Show: Explain one ambiguity and what cannot yet be concluded.

Home/low-material: Use H3 on paper; no real purchase or service data.

Day 18 — A conclusion with two citations

Write or say a two-source conclusion about what the paper design shows and does not show. Attach H1 and H2/H4 tags to the exact claims; do not infer actual community preference.

Choose a route: Sentence strips; oral citation; annotated sketch.

Show: Give the conclusion and one missing source.

Home/low-material: Use the fictional sources only; no local claim.

Day 19 — An action and a possible effect

Propose a change to the paper Share Shelf plan, name one possible benefit and one possible cost/barrier, and state what evidence would be needed before a real decision. Do not use personal disclosures.

Choose a route: Three-card plan; drawing with labels; AAC sequence.

Show: Present the action, both possible effects and the evidence gap.

Home/low-material: Make the proposal on paper for an imaginary design team.

Day 20 — Tell a source-bound story

Present a 30-second or written explanation of how the fictional plan changed and what remains unknown. Name at least two original source labels and avoid a real local-government or Country/Place claim.

Choose a route: Speech/AAC; short note; tactile timeline with source tags.

Show: Give the explanation to a teacher/partner and answer one source question.

Home/low-material: Use printed model cards; no filming or posting.
