Lesson 7
Try it somewhere else.
We learn that the method travels. Shopping was only the practice ground.
What we are learning
Use the same method for a room, garden, recipe, safe hobby task, or work shadow example.
We learn that the method travels. Shopping was only the practice ground.
We keep the task small on purpose. If one part works, tick it. If one part gets stuck, write that down. Both are progress because both tell us what to do next.
Simple version
Do the next small thing. Tick what happened. Stop before the screen wins.

For helpers
Stay beside them, not ahead of them.
Helper note
This is where confidence becomes portable. Keep the task safe and small.
The learner should do the clicking, speaking, typing, and ticking where they can. The confidence has to belong to their hands.
