This was Example #2 today during class, a problem which my 6th period student had up until this point not yet seen, yet most were able to attack it with great precision and success. This was particularly evident when one of my brightest (and most energetic) students completed the second step and, noticing the variable he was about to distribute, mumbled not so subtly under his breath, “Throw some d’s on that…” 

I know, I know. There are times when I should be mad, but I just laugh.
