# Day 19 — Suggest a useful next response

**Purpose/codes:** Propose an action based on information, considering possible effects; S05/S06/S07, K01 inquiry context. **Prepare:** O19 draft display and audience notes. **Child start:** “What could make this clearer? Say who it might help—and what could be harder.”

1. **Invite:** O19 INVENTED repair display at Luna Hall says “The room changed in 2024” but omits a source/date distinction. Note L says seats were added in 2021, leaflet written 2024. Fictional reader Pat wants to know when the change happened; Ren wants a spoken explanation. No trial is supplied.
2. **Model:** Propose a caption saying “Seats added in 2021, according to note L”; a spoken companion is another possible response. Possible benefit: date clarity. Possible difficulty: extra words or time. No actual help has been measured.
3. **Guide:** Children compare two actions responding to the actual stated question. A local-source display uses narrow original facts and visible external references, not copied provider images or a new public sign. The responsible adult would approve any actual public change.
4. **Choose:** Make a reversible classroom draft and plan a focused check. Keep proposal separate from implementation and feedback.
5. **Check:** Child cites a source/reader need, proposes a specific change, and describes a possible help/difficulty with a checking question.
6. **Next:** If only decoration changes, use unrelated fictional music-club display with missing contributor name and a note identifying the actual action. Reteach matching content to reader purpose. If “will help everyone” appears, ask which audience has not been heard.

**Routes:** (a) **Display designer:** compare two removable caption layouts and justify the chosen one. (b) **Audio-on-paper:** write/speak/sign a short explanation companion without recording, retaining source attribution. (c) **Decision mat:** place two possible actions beside benefits/difficulties and choose a reversible classroom test or private source check.

**Observation:** Source/need-linked proposed action with possible effects, not real community adoption. D-first becomes eligible after this teaching.
