What is still missing from the checklist?

A checklist names the things needed for a particular plan. It helps show what is present and what is still missing. The item names matter, not just the number of things.

J05 visual explanationA pretend school-day list requires a book, pencil and bottle. Packed: book, pencil. Missing: bottle. Match items against the stated list; this is not a pocket-size or real school-supply requirement. Adult read-aloud support is appropriate.What is still missing?Pretend school day · match each needed pictureNEEDEDPACKEDbookbookpencilpencilbottle?Still missing: bottle.

The book and pencil are packed. The bottle is the needed item without a packed match.

This pretend school-day list has a book, a pencil and a bottle. The packed side has the book and pencil. The bottle has no packed match, so it is still missing from this list.

Packing the bottle would give every needed item a match. The list is made up for this picture; it is not a rule about what every school day needs.

About this explanation

Starting knowledge: Recognize a book, pencil and bottle and match the same object across two picture groups.
