Day 181 · What do you want ready?
Purpose: create an own job and a useful ready arrangement. Use C01/C02, H01/X01 if wanted. Keep all models until after the first idea.
- 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.
- 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.
- Invite the chosen route below. Distinguish a desired place from a part actually placed there.
- After capture, tell C01's unrelated blank-paper job. Point to its ready sheet and its planned action; the fiction is not this child's use.
- Ask, “How would that arrangement help your job?” Retain the own feature/reason, including a preference or a changed purpose.
- 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.
