Abstract
- The current study explores how teachers report using enabling and extending prompts when teaching with sequences of challenging mathematical tasks. Twenty-nine early years primary school teachers completed a questionnaire following their participation in a professional learning project. Findings suggest that teachers': view prompts as important when teaching with challenging tasks; generally prepare prompts in advance of the lesson; consistently allow students to engage with the core task before making prompts available; and consider prompts equally valuable for augmenting learning across all content areas.
