Names are not too useful in my books. However, to make reference to a specific phrase within the form, names can be handy. Furthermore, when you ask me where we are within the form, using the phrase count is a convenient way to measure how far (or little) we have completed – we just finished phrase 12.

Exercise
The season-end show is coming up June 23rd. While I want all of you to remember and practice what you have learned, I want you to pick something to become its specialist (probably with a partner). Find a way to describe the phrase/move your picked. Then create a draft plan of how to best show/explain that specific move. It is a good exercise to go through this thinking process regardless of what the final decision.
