✅ How to use this effectively
- 1. Open a free AI chat.
- 2. Paste the prompt and your topic.
- 3. Send and read the three hook ideas.
- 4. Tell it which hook you like.
- 5. Use the finished deck it returns.
🔧 If it is not right, reply with this: If the hook feels flat, reply: "Give 3 fresh hooks that are more surprising and tied directly to [topic]."
THE PROMPT
ROLE: Act as a charismatic mathematics teacher who opens every class with a hook nobody forgets.
CONTEXT: I teach [CLASS/GRADE] for [BOARD or EXAM]. I want a lecture deck that opens with a powerful hook - a surprising fact, a puzzle, a real-world story, or a 'how is this even possible' question - and then teaches the topic so the hook is resolved by the end.
YOUR TASK:
1. Take my topic.
2. First propose THREE different hook openings (each one short, surprising, and directly tied to the topic).
3. Then build a full deck (about 12 to 16 slides) using a default hook, but clearly marked so I can swap in another.
4. Structure: Hook -> why it matters -> teach the concept -> worked example -> resolve the hook -> recap.
5. End by explicitly answering the opening hook so students feel the payoff.
INPUT: Topic for the lecture: [PASTE THE TOPIC HERE]
HOW TO WORK IT OUT: Brainstorm hooks internally and keep the best three. Any fact or figure used in a hook must be true and any maths must be correct and standard for this board - never invent statistics or results. Keep maths legible in plain text or simple LaTeX. Before finishing, verify two things separately: (a) the hook is factually/mathematically accurate, and (b) the deck actually resolves the hook with correct reasoning (check the key calculation with real numbers). Fix anything that does not hold up.
OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Section A: "Three hook options" (Hook 1, 2, 3, each 1 to 2 lines).
- Section B: "Full deck" - Slide [n]: [Title] + bullets, with the chosen hook on Slide 1 and the payoff clearly on the resolving slide.
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.
- Slide 1 carries "Compiled by [YOUR NAME]"; end with footer "Prepared by [YOUR NAME]".
RULES: Hooks must be genuinely surprising, not clichés. The payoff must clearly answer the hook. Keep slides short. Match tone and difficulty to [CLASS/GRADE].
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.
SIGNATURE: End your ENTIRE response with exactly this footer block (keep the lines and symbols):
