LAUNCH entry · apply the criterion to two cards using the frame · LAUNCH secure · commit, reveal and defend a criterion · LAUNCH stretch · argue that a different criterion reverses your order

◆ Supported

Two cards under one criterion, scribing permitted.

▲ Standard

Four ranked, criterion named, one sentence of defence.

★ Stretch

Four ranked, defended, with a concession.

Staff card: the contribution cards come from the school agreed figure set held in the room; the deck does not name individuals, because naming a person inside a deck needs a registry review that has not happened.
Staff and source drawer: each card gives a field, a dated contribution and its documented reach. Provenance is the agreed set only, and cards without a date are withdrawn.

Teacher Print Tools — Week 5

Arrival Task

Arrival Task – Retrieving how judgement works

No learner is asked about their own heritage, nationality or family history. Every judgement is made from the cards on the table, and no learner speaks for a group. Nothing said here leaves this room.
You can work from the frame alone. You can dictate and the words stay yours. You can rank by moving cards. Each is a full route.
Criterion is the stated test you are judging against, agreed before you judge.

A ranking without a stated criterion is a preference.

Reach, endurance and whether it opened a door for others are three usable criteria.

Arrival decision: Take four contribution cards from the set. Everyone works from the same four.

Insist all four are read first. A ranking begun after one card is an anchoring effect, not a judgement.

Starter

Starter: Two rankings, one set of cards

Two learners rank the same four cards.

Ranking A puts the card with the widest documented reach first.

Ranking B puts the card whose change lasted longest first.

Neither is wrong. They used different criteria, and each order follows from the criterion that produced it.

Take no ranking aloud at this point; the first spoken order sets the room.

I Do

I Do: Criterion, then order

The diagram shows the same four cards under two criteria. The orders differ, and neither is a mistake.

Modelled: criterion, documented reach. I read each card for how many people the contribution touched, not for how well known it is. Card C names a change applied across a whole service, so C leads. That order came out of the criterion, not out of my preference.

Reach is how many people a change actually touched, as documented.
Model the swap. It converts the lesson from ranking people to reasoning about criteria, which is the assessable skill.
We Do

We Do: Commit to your ranking. Reveal together.

Card A and B: which leads under reach, and what in the card says so?

Card C: does endurance move it up or down?

Card D: which criterion is kindest to it, and is that a reason to choose it?

Commit first: write your criterion and your order on a whiteboard and turn it over. Everyone commits at the same time; nobody reveals until every board is down. Then we hold up together.

Wait for every board. Take the defence from a learner who has not spoken today, and scribe the criterion exactly.

I Do

I Do: Defending the criterion, not the name

Two challenges arrive at a ranking. One says the order is wrong. One says the criterion was too narrow.

Refusing the second challenge is the commonest weakness at this level, and it is visible in a single sentence.

Modelled reply: under reach my order stands. Under a criterion that counted whether a door was opened for others, card D would rise, and I would not be able to keep it fourth.

Reward the concession. Learners who never concede are not being rigorous, they are being defensive, and the distinction is worth naming.
We Do

We Do: Say what a wider criterion would change

Everyone writes one sentence of concession on a whiteboard, then we hold up together.

Scribe the concession verbatim; it is the assessed evidence for this outcome.

Independent Work

Independent Work — Your record: criterion, order, concession

16:00

Produce one record. The criterion and the concession carry more weight than the order.

◆ Supported

Two cards ranked under one criterion, with the frame. Scribing permitted.

▲ Standard

Four cards ranked, criterion named, and one sentence of defence.

★ Stretch

Four ranked, defended, and a concession naming what a wider criterion changes.

Check yourself: did you apply it to every card in the same way?

Check yourself: does your concession name a criterion and a consequence?

Record route and scribing on the evidence line, keeping adult support visible and separate from the learner own words.

⏸ Pens down — quick partner check!

Half way through: stop, swap with a partner, and check one thing on the list above together. Then carry on.

WAGOLL — what a good one looks like

A finished record: criterion, documented reach. Order C, B, A, D. Defence, C names a change applied across a whole service and the card documents it. Concession, under a criterion counting doors opened for others, D rises and I could not keep it last.

Exit Ticket

Exit Ticket — Audience receives; influence changes something

Read your criterion and concession to a partner. They say back what your criterion counted.

Did they name something you did not mean to count? Change one phrase. That change is your influence.

Close by naming one learner whose criterion was rephrased after a partner misread it. That is the influence record.

✅ Complete

Hand in your record and tick the learner confirmation on your sheet. That is the lesson done.
