A handoff, not homework grading
The teacher chooses one to three items already taught. The family uses one gentle ten-minute routine and returns observations, not a score. No child name, diagnosis, behavior label or contact detail is needed.

Four-week handoff rhythm
Use the weeks in order or repeat the one that matches the current class. The teacher remains responsible for selecting the actual symbols, words and pace.
Week 1
Match one shape and sound
Teacher sends
Choose one to three symbols already modeled in class. Write only those items on the handoff card.
Family tries
Let the child choose one item, hear it once, then point, trace in the air or find its card.
Family returns
Circle what the child chose to do. Do not mark correct/incorrect or add a score.
Week 2
Notice one tone contrast
Teacher sends
Choose one familiar syllable and two contrasting tones from the current lesson.
Family tries
Model both naturally with a hand motion. Listening, copying the motion or echoing all count.
Family returns
Note only which form felt comfortable and which one the teacher may model again.
Week 3
Join a short blend
Teacher sends
Choose one blend the class has already heard; avoid sending a new rule home.
Family tries
Slide the two symbol cards together slowly, then say one familiar word containing the blend.
Family returns
Circle listened, pointed, blended or asked to stop. Every option is useful information.
Week 4
Use Zhuyin in real reading
Teacher sends
Choose one short annotated word or phrase from an authorized class or family resource.
Family tries
Read it together for meaning. The child may point, act, draw or say part of the phrase.
Family returns
Write one neutral next step, such as “model once more” or “ready for another example.”

Non-scored return slip
This slip records participation, not correctness. Circle only what happened; blank items are not failures, and this is not a mastery check.
One neutral next step: ________________________________________
Optional family question for the teacher: __________________________
Private by design
There is no account, child-name field, class field, form submission, camera, microphone, upload, analytics input, local storage or saved profile. The printable slip works without a name. Schools and families keep any handwriting under their own privacy policy.

Teacher and family FAQ
Does a teacher or family need an account?
No. Open or print the page directly. Nothing is submitted to the site.
Does the return slip assess Zhuyin mastery?
No. It records participation only and cannot measure mastery, readiness or a learning difficulty.
Must a family use Lumi Bopomofo?
No. Paper, teacher modeling and an authorized class resource are enough to use the complete kit.
Should a family write the child's name?
No name is needed. Follow the school's own privacy policy for any optional handwriting kept offline.
