# Complete text and tactile routes for the three A4 aids

All three aids are original black-on-white one-page A4 SVGs with matching selectable-text PDFs. The SVG has a title and description; this page gives the **full wording and layout order**, including information a visual skim could miss. Print at actual A4 size or enlarge; never require colour discrimination. A teacher can read the route without coaching an answer. **Keep Day 15 and Day 20 fresh check pages closed until their day.**

Reading order from top to bottom:

1. At top left: “DOCKSIDE FIX CLUB”. Below: “Fictional classroom poster · 18 September 2026”. A horizontal rule follows.
2. The largest word, near the upper middle: **“ELEVEN”**. Immediately below, bold and smaller but still prominent: **“WORKING BY CLOSING TIME!”** Another horizontal rule follows.
3. Regular body text: “A small trial checked 18 brought-in items. Eleven were working when the table closed. If another session is approved, ask the organiser about the date and suitable items.”
4. Near the bottom, in a thin rectangular box and visibly smaller than the headline: “Read the closing detail too. Four items were waiting for parts; three were not repaired at closing. This count does not say how long any repair lasted or what another session would cost.”
5. Beneath the box: “Invented source A · created by the same club as its closing tally”. The footer credits SubjectNest, NeuroForgeIO Pty Ltd, CC BY 4.0 and 2026.

**Nonvisual design observation:** “ELEVEN” is first and largest; the four and three categories and the limitations are lower and smaller. The page contains no photograph, colour code, chart or real club logo. Describing this hierarchy supplies the information needed for the Day 12 design-effect question; it does not supply the learner's interpretation.

**Tactile/low-tech route:** Put the five numbered text sections on separate paper strips in top-to-bottom order. Make “ELEVEN” a physically larger card or raise its outline with a thick marker/tape. Put the closing-detail strip inside a textured paper frame near the bottom. The learner can compare prominence and order, then read, listen to or feel the words in their chosen mode. No learner should have to infer text solely from a tiny print caveat.

## Two-source comparison mat · [PDF](source-comparison.pdf) · [SVG](source-comparison.svg)

The page has the heading “Compare two sources about one event” and the instruction “Record what each source says. Then ask what both still leave open.” Beneath are **two equal side-by-side empty columns**. Each column has the same six fields, top to bottom: **Source ID / text type; Creator / date; Audience / purpose; Exact claim or detail; What the source cannot show; One question to ask next.** Lines beneath each label are blank; no source or answer is pre-filled. Beneath both columns: “Shared origin? [ ] same creator/event [ ] different [ ] unknown” and “Similar wording alone does not prove independent confirmation.”

**Text/table route:** Copy two lists headed Source 1 and Source 2 with the same six prompts. Read across the same row only after the learner has filled both. To make a tactile mat, use two textured card columns, then place six labelled strips vertically in each. A final shared-origin strip goes below both columns. The layout's equality means neither source is automatically given more authority.

## Bounded argument planner · [PDF](argument-planner.pdf) · [SVG](argument-planner.svg)

The heading is “A careful argument for a real reader”. Instruction: “Name the decision and audience. Link evidence to a source ID.” A blank **Reader / decision** line is followed by four equally sized stacked empty panels:

1. **RECOMMENDATION** — “What should the reader consider, and under what condition?”
2. **EXACT EVIDENCE** — “What did a named source actually record or say?”
3. **LIMIT OR COUNTERPOINT** — “What is not shown? Which different view matters?”
4. **CAREFUL NEXT STEP** — “What could a small test or new question find out?”

Each panel has two blank writing lines. Below them is a blank **Source ID(s)** line, then “Check: [ ] exact [ ] conditional [ ] fair to other views [ ] revised.” A final note says: “The stages may be reordered if the reader can still follow each job.” No model answer or check result is on the page.

**Text/tactile route:** Four distinct cards in the listed order, each with its exact prompt and two blank lines or spaces for dictated/AAC responses. The reader/decision card goes above, source-ID card and check card below. Learners can reorder the four body cards and explain how the new order serves the reader. This preserves planning demand without requiring handwriting, visual scanning or a fixed paragraph template.
