Title

A dragon chooses a pocket

Complete learner account

In fiction, a dragon tries to carry a star drawing in a tiny paper pocket. The drawing sticks out. The dragon rolls the drawing and puts it in, then paints a star on the pocket so it can remember what is inside.

Child invitation

What is your favourite or least favourite part? Why?

Possible staff worked

I prefer the painted-star ending because it gives the dragon a useful reminder. Another source reason may be better for another reader.

Complete staff moves

Read without a preference quiz first. Model an honest different preference about another text. Invite a detail plus reason; allow a quiet pointed choice with exact adult recording.

Observable next evidence

Own preference and relevant text feature; no mandatory positive reaction.

Entry

Adult reads the whole source neutrally when wanted; exact child-directed recording, pointing/sign/AAC/drawing/type/speech remain available. Match print separately; no voice/neatness/speed gate.

Own page contract

Genuine empty practice space first, complete neutral source in initially closed same-page disclosure, separate staff model; never auto-fill.
