# A narrow reply

An ordinary teaching idea. The example below is made up; your own work can stay private.

## Have a go

1. Read the exact fictional reply.
2. Keep its words and say what they do tell us.
3. Put liking, completion and other users in the unanswered place.

## Example and reasoning

An agreeing fictional user says, “I found where to start.” No liking, completion, repeat use or second user response is reported. Ask what they said and what was not said. Do not turn this into 'everyone liked the game'. Next help: keep exact words apart from the maker's interpretation; an own private guide needs no audience.

<summary>Grown-up help</summary>

Offer speech, sign, AAC, pointing, drawing, faithful dictation, usual home-language support when competent, private work, pause, rest or finish. Ask one part at a time and keep its meaning. No partner, winner, score, time limit or fixed response length is required. Use only locally suitable broad whole paper/card, a checked marking tool and a stable comfortable table. A helper may act exactly as directed; keep the child's idea and the actual operator's action separate. Record an actual event only when it happened. A missing record can mean unknown; it does not establish that no action happened. A supplied story remains fiction.

Show the worked reasoning after an offered own idea where useful. This context is not a held first/later source.
