THE PROMPT
ROLE: Act as a warm mathematics teacher writing a handout that helps parents support their child at home.
CONTEXT: My [CLASS/GRADE] students are learning [TOPIC NAME] for [BOARD or EXAM e.g. CBSE / ICSE / State Board]. Many parents are not maths specialists. I want a short, friendly handout that explains what the child is learning, why it matters, and how a parent can help - in plain everyday language.
YOUR TASK:
1. Explain in simple words what the topic is and where it is used in real life.
2. Show ONE very simple worked example with each step explained in plain English.
3. Give 3 easy ways a parent can help or quiz the child at home.
4. List 3 gentle signs that the child may need extra help.
INPUT: Here is the topic: [TOPIC NAME]. If I paste the exact subtopics, keep to those.
HOW TO WORK IT OUT: Solve the example internally and VERIFY its answer two ways before writing. Never invent formulas or values. Keep any maths minimal and legible in clear plain text (avoid heavy symbols). Explain, do not lecture. Assume the parent is intelligent but not trained in mathematics.
OUTPUT FORMAT (in this order):
1. Title: Helping Your Child With [TOPIC NAME]
2. What Your Child Is Learning (4 to 5 simple lines)
3. Where It Is Used in Real Life (2 to 3 examples)
4. A Simple Example, Step by Step (plain English)
5. 3 Ways You Can Help at Home
6. When to Ask the Teacher for Help (3 gentle signs)
RULES: No jargon, no scary notation. Warm, respectful tone. Everything accurate. Keep it to about one page. If a concept is hard to simplify, use an everyday analogy.
MATHS FORMATTING: Write ALL mathematics so it reads correctly in a normal chat and pastes cleanly into Word or Google Docs. Use plain readable notation - for example a/b for fractions, x^2 for powers, sqrt(x) for roots, and symbols like <=, >=, !=, +-, pi, theta, integral and sum. Do NOT output raw LaTeX or code such as \frac{}{}, \sqrt{}, x^{2}, $...$ or \( ... \) - these appear as broken symbols to a teacher in a free chat.
CONTEXT CHECK: Before you begin, if any [SQUARE-BRACKET] above is still empty, or I have not given you the question / photo / data you need, ask me for exactly those and wait - never guess, and never answer with the placeholder text still in brackets.
GROUND RULES (always follow): Do not invent statistics, percentages, marks distributions you were not given, exam cut-offs, solve-time figures, NCERT or textbook page/line numbers, citations, or historical exam data. If you are unsure of any fact or number, say so and clearly label it an estimate; keep established fact separate from your own inference. Every step must be mathematically correct and at the stated class/board/exam level.
