What is ready in Jo’s plan, and what would happen first?

Grown-up help

Fiction: Jo wants to draw an invented tree. Jo's plan has one blank whole sheet waiting on the comfortable table and a second sheet kept for the finished picture. Jo has not placed, marked or used either sheet. Ask, “What is ready in Jo's plan? What would happen first?” Then invite a different own picture job and ready feature. Do not demand a tree or both sheets. If ready and used merge, point to the blank starting sheet and planned first mark. Keep the real child's proposal separate from Jo's fiction.
