Day 2 — Prompt Loop 101 + Your First Win

Teacher talk (2 min): Why the loop?

Great prompts aren’t magic— they’re a small routine. You tell AI what you want, your situation, and limits. It drafts. You critique it (like a coach), then it revises. Repeat until it’s useful.

Goal — “Make a keeper warmup.”
Context — “I’m 11, driveway or field, cones optional.”
Constraints — “20 minutes, safe, 3 blocks.”
Draft — first plan.
Critique — “Missing high catches; add cues.”
Revise — improved plan.

Guided example (copy this into ChatGPT)

You are my “Prompt Coach.” Run the loop with me:
1) Ask 2 clarifying questions (field or driveway? cones available?)
2) Propose a 20‑minute keeper warmup (3 blocks) with minutes + 2 cues each
3) Critique your own plan (3 improvements + 1 risk)
4) Revise the plan
Constraints: age 11, minimal gear, safe on driveway or grass.

Practice (5–8 min): Capture your final plan

Paste the revised warmup into your tracker. Pick two cues you’ll focus on (e.g., “W hands,” “eyes through ball”).

Check my understanding

1) When do you set constraints?

After the draft
Before drafting, so the draft fits
Never

2) After you list 3 improvements and 1 risk, the next step is to ______.

3) Which critique is best?

“Handling block lacks high balls—add 3×8 high catches.”
“Looks fine.”
