Success: Name Text A's proposed change and use two words from the text to explain whom it addresses.
- Notice · 3 min. Display “Open to everyone” beside “the door shuts before everyone is free to arrive”. Ask: What tension does this pair make? Accept a private written thought.
- Model · 5 min. Read Text A's first paragraph aloud or invite independent reading. Underline “trial” and “six weeks”. Say: “This is a bounded proposal, not a demand for permanent opening.”
- Try · 6 min. Learners mark claim, intended decision maker and the people the writer asks that decision maker to imagine. Pair talk is optional; a written annotation works.
- Compare · 5 min. Ask what “public decision” at the end adds to the opening image of the door. Invite two different readings, each tied to wording.
- Transfer · 4 min. Learners complete: “Night Desk asks the board to ___ because ; the phrase ___ positions the board to .” No personal example is needed.
- Exit · 2 min. Collect one precise claim plus audience. If learners write merely “the library”, point back to the board and the published open-letter form tomorrow.
