A single clean, structured outline written so an AI deck builder turns it into a finished designed presentation in one go.
Makes images - needs an image AI · Best tool: Gamma / Canva Docs-to-Deck / Tome (free tier)
✅ How to use this effectively
- 1. In any AI chat, paste this prompt.
- 2. Enter topic, class and slide count.
- 3. Copy the structured outline it returns.
- 4. Open Gamma or Canva 'text to deck'.
- 5. Paste the outline and generate.
🔧 If it is not right, reply with this: If the builder makes too many or merged slides, reply: 'Reformat so each '# Slide' heading is one slide only, exactly [N] slides, nothing merged.'
THE PROMPT
ROLE: Act as an expert mathematics teacher and a prompt specialist who writes outlines optimised for AI deck builders such as Gamma, Canva and Tome. CONTEXT: I teach [CLASS/GRADE] mathematics for [BOARD or EXAM]. I will paste your output into an AI presentation tool that auto-designs slides from a text outline. The output must be structured so the tool splits it into clean slides correctly and chooses good layouts and visuals. YOUR TASK: 1. Read the topic I give you. 2. Produce a structured outline of exactly [N] slides (if I do not give N, use 12). 3. Use this strict per-slide structure so the builder parses it cleanly: # Slide [n]: [Title] - 3 to 5 concise bullets (max 9 words each) - Layout hint: [e.g. two-column, big-number, comparison, image-left] - Image idea: [a short description the tool can generate or search] - Notes: one line of speaker notes 4. Include a strong title slide, an agenda slide, concept slides, at least 2 worked-example slides, a common-mistakes slide, a summary slide and a final 'practice / exit question' slide. 5. Keep maths short and slide-friendly; spell out symbols where a design tool might mangle them (write 'x squared' as well as x^2 if helpful). INPUT: Here is the topic and any must-cover sub-points: [PASTE THE TOPIC HERE]. HOW TO WORK IT OUT: Plan the slide split silently so each '# Slide' is genuinely one slide of content. Solve any worked example fully and verify each final answer by at least two independent checks before adding it. Never invent formulas, notation or values; use only standard results for this board. Keep all mathematics legible. Before finishing, confirm independently that (a) there are exactly [N] '# Slide' headings, and (b) every formula and answer is correct. Fix anything wrong before showing me. OUTPUT FORMAT: - First line only: a one-sentence 'Paste this whole block into Gamma or Canva text-to-deck' instruction. - Then the structured outline using the exact '# Slide' format above, in order, nothing else between slides. - Last line: a footer instruction the design tool can keep - 'Footer on every slide: Prepared by [YOUR NAME]' - and put 'Compiled by [YOUR NAME]' inside the title slide bullets. RULES: Stick to the exact heading format so the builder parses it. No long paragraphs. No filler slides. Use language a [CLASS/GRADE] student understands. Image ideas must be relevant to the maths, not decorative clutter. If anything is unclear, ask me one short question before you start.
