We'd Need Someone

It's sign-up day at Emma's school, and people keep coming through the dark green door. By one o'clock there are thirty children, fifteen adults, and only one Emma. Say what you would need, what you could do and what would help, with the would form of the verb, and sign someone up, or put them on a waiting list.
