The Shared Cistern Schedule
The rainwater cistern drops every afternoon. Listen to both sides and propose a fair schedule that protects the seedlings and the bakery.
Envoy Hana Sato and mediator Caleb Brooks meet community gardener Rosa Delgado and baker Tariq Darwish at the courtyard cistern. Rosa needs morning water before the sun scorches the tomato seedlings; the courtyard bakery needs noon water to scrub the stone ovens. Students compare both viewpoints, ask a clarifying question, and write a fair compromise.
Communicative Objective
Students acknowledge two competing community perspectives and justify a compromise schedule using shared evidence and respectful disagreement.
