01 / UNDERSTAND

Here is what is happening.

Point of view shapes which details a storyteller notices. Imagine a team game: one player thinks a friend ignored a pass; the friend says they did not hear the call. Neither account alone reveals every detail. Compare the statements respectfully and identify what remains unknown.

Pause. Make the idea your own.

Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?

You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.
02 / MAKE IT YOUR OWN
