Day 37 · Make the same job work for a different reader

Choose one useful part. You can listen, point, draw, sign, speak, use your communication system, type, write or ask an adult to write your exact words. You can stop or come back later.

Two complete original guides to the same pretend kit. New-reader guide: “There are two cards. A star mark names the star card. Pick that one if your drawing needs a star.” Familiar-reader guide: “For a star drawing, choose the star card.” Both guide a paper choice; neither reports a reader result.

Your invitation

Who might each guide help, and which words make you think that?

Both can be useful; fewer words is not always better, and real audience needs are not known from the titles alone.

Original pretend board guide pair. Maker note: “Mark the empty starting square START. Leave the finishing square without a mark until the group chooses its name.” Player note: “Begin on the square marked START. Ask what the finishing square will be called.” The finishing name has not been chosen.

Your invitation

Explain one difference that helps each reader do their job.

No final name, winning rule or actual group agreement is supplied.

Choose a route

Make C13’s star choice clearer for a new reader in your usual mode.

Compare C14 maker and player jobs and change one guide for a different paper job.

Ask an adult to read both in small parts; select one relevant detail to explain and dictate or show your version.

Use blank paper, your daily sheet or the optional useful-guide bench. Keep your own idea; one useful detail is enough.
