By changing the narration the answer will be '' The old lady told her daughter that she is preparing a clay model for her''.
Explanation:
- Changing narration means changing it into a direct or indirect speech.
- Indirect speech: In this, we convey the speaker's message in our own words.
- It is indirectly conveyed by someone else.
- Direct speech: In this situation, the speaker quotes his own words without any change.
- These are the actual words without phrasing it into other words.

The old lady told her daughter that she was preparing a clay model for her that day
Explanation:
- Direct speech quotes, repeats, the "exact words" spoken. When we use direct speech in writing, we place the "words spoken between quotation marks" (" ") and there is no "change in these words".
- Reported/indirect speech is talks about the past, so we normally change the tense of the words spoken. That is, expressing the content of statements/questions/other utterances, sans quoting them explicitly like in direct speech
- "Said" will become "told" when we know who the reported speech is meant for (in the above case, the old lady is saying this to her daughter, so said becomes told)
- The first person singular (I) will become second person singular (he/she)
- If the reporting speech is in present continuous it must be changed to past continuous, like in the above sentence (am preparing become was preparing). Another example, Direct Speech: "I am reading a book", he explained; Indirect Speech:He explained that he was reading a book
- "Today" in indirect speech becomes "that day"
