Students have tried the Lucky Dip problem at home before coming in for the day’s lesson. The teacher reviewed first attempts, identified common issues and used the suggested questions from the lesson guide. If a students’ responses included more than one issue from the first column of the table, then the teacher highlighted more than one corresponding suggestion.At the beginning of class students were given time to review the prompts and suggestions the teacher had attached to their original solutions and write down new ideas about the problem. Then they were asked to each go around and share before coming up with one whole‐group solution to share.
