Pick-up Notes in Sight Clapping

When the clapping rhythm element for sight reading begins with an incomplete measure, is the student expected to first tap a complete measure (as indicated in the syllabus) and then carry on tapping the incomplete measure? The syllabus doesn't mention what to do in cases of incomplete measures.

For Sight Clapping, in cases where there is a pick-up note, students should tap one complete measure before the partial measure containing the pick-up note.
