Read the source
CONSTRUCTED TEACHING RECORDS: fictional Oak Street; dates are for comparing before and after.
Record A - 1980: Oak Street has a library, a bus stop and a small shop.
Record B - 2026: the shop has become a cafe; the library and bus stop remain.
Both records show the same fictional street.
These are written teaching records, not photographs.
