What happened

The learner's timed handwritten piece on a forest prompt became a short sequence of events at a camp and a cave and scored 15/40 (attempt 17), with one paragraph break placed at the one shift. Ran against the Tuesday timed handwritten block, 13:03-14:01. Maths homework 8 named at the open. Before the timer, one message each: four things for the scene (four given, 8 minutes after the opening message); the paragraph line, typed back word for word; plan on paper, 5 minutes set, about 7 used; structure word asked: a place first, then cyclical picked from three options. Write window cut by the clock from 35 to 30 minutes, 13:26-13:55; two photos at 13:57 with no message; about 98 words in two paragraphs. Task: describe a forest early on a winter morning, one place, one moment, nothing happens. The piece opens at nightfall, never names the forest and has five actions; two of the four planned things appear. Plan in the photo: mood, places on the structure line, senses, the paragraph line; last line blank. One named check: the letter after each comma, reported 0, verified 0 of 2 (6 Oct: 2 capitals). Marked the same sitting: ideas and shaping 8/24 (Level 2 lower), accuracy 7/16 (Level 2); 6 Oct was 12 and 8. Six spellings given with aids after marking, not typed back. 1 writing task set, 1 attempted, 0 blank. Two closing lines written. No status changes. Session 97's story task stays open; the reading-block plan from 9 Oct is carried forward unrun. Topic evidence and the lesson review follow in separate calls because the single call returned Bad Gateway twice.

Planned next

NEXT READING BLOCK (Wed 14 Oct, unrun since 9 Oct): no notes, her own rule for 'attitude'; spell through and actually; pick their/there; one quotation cold on a fresh short extract (not June 2017, not night-ferry): if literal, one worked example on another sentence, then hers; then three quotations, ten minutes, no model. NEXT WRITING BLOCK (Mon 19 Oct): FIRST finish 12 Oct's story task (session 97): ask what else is written, then one backstage person seen through one thing they do or carry, two or three sentences, no feeling words, no model. THEN description versus story: two short paragraphs on one place, she picks the still one, types her own rule, writes one still paragraph on her one shoe or the Greek sign. NEXT TIMED HANDWRITTEN PIECE: only after that paragraph; description; last line typed before the timer; pre-timer steps in two messages, writing by 13:10; named check: full stop after the very last word.
