# Day 181 · What do you want ready?

**Purpose:** create an own job and a useful ready arrangement. Use [C01](../contexts/C01.html)/[C02](../contexts/C02.html), [H01](../home/H01.html)/[X01](../projects/X01.html) if wanted. Keep all models until after the first idea.

1. Ask, “What little drawing or message job would you like to do?” Accept an invented message or private picture; do not require a personal recipient.
2. Ask which part would need to be ready before starting. Save the child's first words, marks or directed arrangement without completing it for them.
3. Invite the chosen route below. Distinguish a desired place from a part actually placed there.
4. After capture, tell [C01](../contexts/C01.html)'s unrelated blank-paper job. Point to its ready sheet and its planned action; the fiction is not this child's use.
5. Ask, “How would that arrangement help your job?” Retain the own feature/reason, including a preference or a changed purpose.
6. Keep an own purpose, ready feature and next question privately. If only “a desk” is offered, ask what a person would do there; then return to their own idea.

**Routes:** draw a ready view for a private picture; direct a willing helper to mark a broad plan of a pretend message space; describe a ready routine in speech/sign/AAC without objects. Each creates a purpose/arrangement through a different action, not three required products.

**Notice/next teaching:** purpose linked to a start feature. If the feature's job is unclear, compare an unrelated sheet waiting on a surface with a sheet already being marked; invite one own start choice. No neatness or speed score.
