# Day 28 · Make a story and a useful companion

Choose a tiny project. Make one part fun to read and one part useful to follow.

- [Read A small story and a useful guide: worked example](../texts/worked.html)

## Bookmark adventure kit

Imagine a bookmark with a problem. Make its small adventure, then a useful guide for a paper or text page marker.

## Quiet game-story pack

Imagine a game character making a choice. Make the story, then a guide with PLACE, PROBLEM and CHANGE and a solo route.

## Tiny gallery pack

Imagine a picture label that gets lost. Make its story, then a useful guide for numbering two pretend pictures.

Make your own idea below, use paper or tell a familiar adult. A short clear idea is a good start.

## Grown-up help

Choose one context and switch if it does not fit. You can read or hear the text, point, type, sign, use AAC, direct an adult’s drawing or dictate your exact words. Quiet/private work and rest are available. Listening, self-reading, planning, actual trying and actual presenting are different useful records. A grown-up can remove access barriers without choosing your ideas. No device, printer, purchase, account, recording or public upload is required.

Use the shared text through listening or accessible print; actual independent reading is checked separately. Original fictional activities and predictions do not become actual trial results.
