Small job
Make a pocket question station: one folded scrap card holds the reader and question, with a loose blank card for the answer. Try it once and improve the wording.
Make and try
-
Read or hear both complete matched sources. Choose one of their readers, character views or practical jobs.

-
Make a small first version using the day's child direction: ‘Who is it for? Ask one useful question. Leave space for the answer.’
-
Try it with a willing reader, or use the supplied reader question/answer. Record which was used. Nobody has to interview or perform publicly.
-
Choose one useful change or explain one part you keep. Put the source note and any adult help beside the work.
Another option
Use the other complete matched source for a second version after introducing it; compare reader fit rather than page count.
Time
20–40 minutes across sittings, unpiloted; ordinary teaching and feedback, not a scored assignment.
What this can show
Notice whether the question has a reader, a usable choice or focus, and a purpose. Record any prompting. Do not infer actual turn-taking from the finished card.
