   • Model the completion of a single prompt: demonstrate how you would like the students to justify their reasoning on an open-ended problem.

   • Create a clear set of expectations: provide a set of mathematical objectives that need to be accomplished by the end of each task.

   • Use the prompts in moderation: space out the use of the prompts to keep the concept fresh and interesting throughout the year.
