A blank clipboard hangs in a gym hallway near a whistle and a stack of practice cones.

Ashley runs a finger down the laminated roster outside the gym office, where the coach has pinned Thursday's lineup by jersey number. Her assigned task was to copy the final changes from the coach's notes onto the posted version after practice, then leave it ready. The changes are written in, and the extra sticky note has been removed from the edge of the clipboard. The coach had said the posted roster is what players will follow for warmups and station rotations tomorrow. No one else has compared the posted names with the coach's marked copy, and the hallway is starting to clear. Ashley needs one sentence that gives the coach the status without making the work sound finished and checked.

Write the exact sentence Ashley should say to the coach.

Ashley needs to tell the coach that the posted roster changes are finished but still need a check before the team uses them.

  • the roster changes are finished
  • no one has checked them yet
  • a clear request for a check or next step

Think about it: What could happen next if Ashley only says the roster is finished?
