I’m not sure how to do that.

The plant grows with the tips of the leaves pointing upward. Put the end that broke off far enough into the soil so it doesn’t fall out and water as usual. You might have to take one or two leaves off the bottom to allow for more stem space. Don’t throw away any leaves you remove; each of them can become a new plant!
