12 minUse one focused round as a model or station. Watch for the strategy and explanation, not only the score. When a move fails, find the first step where the result differed from the plan and revise from there.
3Explain
6 minChoose one: What was your first plan, and where did you revise it? Or: Which clue helped you choose between two possible moves?

Evidence to notice
Listen for a specific strategy, choice, revision, or explanation connected to the mission goal.
Prompt: What was your first plan, and where did you revise it?
Adapt the challenge
Support
Plan only the next two moves, test them, and add more steps after the route or rule is clear.
Extend
Find a second successful strategy and compare its number of moves, risks, or decision points.
Learner reflection
I tried a strategy. I noticed a pattern. I changed my plan. I explained my thinking.
