Complete original story: Lila wanted visitors to find her paper dragon. She wrote DRAGON over its little box. Then the lamp in the story went out. Lila heard tap, tap from the shelf and pictured the dragon tiptoeing away. Her brother Ren held a spare paper sign and said, “We could put this by the box.” The story ends before anyone checks the shelf.

Staff possible reasoning
The lamp going out and tap, tap can suggest a mysterious mood. Lila imagining the dragon moving is her thought, not a recorded moving dragon.
Next teaching
Choose a bright, playful setting for a new ending and explain one language change that fits it.
Limit
No final finding, dragon movement or shared feeling is stated. A personal response may differ with reasons.
