PRINTABLE WORKSHEETS
Every mentor worksheet on its own page
WORKSHEETS
These are the mentor's print-ready worksheets: fuller versions for mentor reference, overflow, and any student who wants more room. Each carries a red "Print this" banner naming the sheet and how many copies to run. These are fuller than the student §9 tear-outs. When you need an exact copy of what a student already has (an extra Evidence Map for an absent juror), print that from the Student Binder §9 so the juror gets the same sheet.
HOW TO USE
THESE SHEETS
Cheat sheet for this pad: Arms Room → Unit Cover · Forge → your role sheet · Tavern → Reflection + Story Layer. Everyone keeps Bench prep ready.
- Monday night: open the Week-by-Week Guide, know this week's session and what to read.
- Arms Room week: fill Unit Cover after role assignment. Start ACTOR Log if you want nightly structure.
- Forge week: pull one role sheet (Moderator / Debater / Researcher / Jury). Everyone also has Bench Prep ready.
- Before the U1 Forge: submit Sunday, Sept 27, 10:00 AM, by the locally declared course channel or paper handoff. Later units follow their printed deadline band.
- Tavern week: Forge Reflection (the argument) + Story Layer Draft (you, 5 years out). Not the same document.

The debate never cancels. Everyone preps both sides every unit. If called in, expand what you already wrote: 2 minutes, claim → evidence → impact.
If called: claim → evidence → impact · 2 min
FORGE REFLECTION
Keep this page. Your mentor will mark one part of your answer. At the Tavern, use that feedback to improve one sentence in the space below. Leave your first answer as it is. Include the chapter for your counter.
STORY LAYER
Write about: ☐ myself ☐ someone I invent. Both count the same. Rules and an example: this unit’s page in the Story tab. Start 5 years from now · start on a day when it’s already working · skip how they got there · show what it costs · leave out the trait’s name.
Story Layer · 1 of 3
Story Layer · draft continued. Either route (yourself or someone you invent) carries the same value. Sharing is optional and requires consent; mentors assess trait reasoning, choice, and cost.
Story Layer · 2 of 3
Story Layer · finish the story, then write your line. Reread your last line first. Personal disclosure is never required.
Not the debate question.
Story Layer · 3 of 3
ACTOR LOG
Nightly reading loop: five minutes. Skip a step, you skipped the loop.
