Optional own project ·Make two moves worth remembering
Choose a different character with a different purpose. Keep one suitable action and change the other; explain your own reason without making the sequence longer.
Start with one familiar purpose and one small decision. Use usual communication, broad drawing, an organiser role, directing an agreeing adult or a suitable locally reviewed practical opportunity. An adult prepares and teaches actual technique/space/kit/cues; no harder action, longer route, stronger send, more turns or public performance is expected.
Make the idea yours: choose the purpose, one part and an ending. An agreeing listener may offer one real question; there need be no audience or second trial. Decide keep/change/private/finish. Keep only any genuinely available relevant child-owned work with permission; a complete portfolio is not the project goal.
Notice an actual own decision and what happened only where observed, with child/helper/support distinct. A plan or fictional explanation remains useful without being filled as practical competence. Choose a next appropriate opportunity from actual need rather than a generic demand to practise more.
