Parent briefing · 5 minutes, before they sit
This closes the six-sitting young arc. Same house rule as sitting 1.
Hard edges
- No generated oral as theirs.
- Mouth first.
If they say
- “We're done; the tool can finish.”
- Finishing is saying it. The tool can wait.
Objective
The student runs the full Voice rule in one sitting and can explain why the tool is second.
The rule in one sitting
Write. Say. Compare one pattern. Say again. If a tool offers to be the speaker, catch it. The grandmother is still the exam.
Big idea
The mouth has to move. Everything else is drill around that fact.
