Screen Mirroring to ipad

Im trying to use my ipad pro 11" as a second monitor for my macbook air M2. Both are up to date on software. I can mirror my ipad display to my macbook but not the other way around. My ipad doesn't show up on screen mirroring on my mac. How do I get my macbook screen to mirror to my ipad?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.0
