Success: transfer estimate, two-digit multiplication and explanation to an unseen count. Prepare: reveal Check A today only; keep worked key private. Codes: AC9M5N06, AC9M5N08.
- Recall · 2 min. Ask from memory what makes an estimate useful. Key: nearby, justified and suited to the decision; do not preview the new digits.
- Directions · 3 min. Explain response modes. Children may use paper mat or tactile place cards; if a calculator is allowed, record its role. Do not solve a parallel problem with check numbers.
- Access · 3 min. Read the new fictional card once neutrally or provide a large-print/text copy. Check understanding of each and groups without suggesting an operation result.
- Fresh response · 12 min. Learner estimates, calculates and checks Check A independently. A child needing more processing time finishes in a separately recorded continuation; time pressure is not the target.
- Reflect · 3 min. Ask which part of their exact result agrees with their benchmark; collect before discussing a key.
- Record · 2 min. Mark independent/prompted and method; secure named work under school policy. Offer after-check Day 15 routes only after collection.
