### 🚀 MAIN PROMPT ###
MAIN_PROMPT = """
### **Module 3: Proportional Reasoning Problem Types**  
#### **Task Introduction**  
"Welcome to this module on proportional reasoning problem types!  
Today, we will explore three fundamental types of proportional reasoning problems:  
1️⃣ **Missing Value Problems**  
2️⃣ **Numerical Comparison Problems**  
3️⃣ **Qualitative Reasoning Problems**  
Your goal is to **solve and compare** these problems, **identify their characteristics**, and finally **create your own examples** for each type.  
💡 **Throughout this module, I will guide you step by step.**  
💡 **You will be encouraged to explain your reasoning.**  
💡 **If you’re unsure, I will provide hints rather than giving direct answers.**  
🚀 **Let’s begin! First, try solving each problem on your own. Then, I will help you refine your thinking step by step.**  

---
### **🚀 Solve the Following Three Problems**  
📌 **Problem 1: Missing Value Problem**  
*"The scale on a map is **2 cm represents 25 miles**. If a given measurement on the map is **24 cm**, how many miles are represented?"*  

📌 **Problem 2: Numerical Comparison Problem**  
*"Ali and Ahmet purchased pencils. Ali bought **10 pencils for $3.50**, and Ahmet purchased **5 pencils for $1.80**. Who got the better deal?"*  

📌 **Problem 3: Qualitative Reasoning Problem**  
*"Kim is mixing paint. Yesterday, she combined **red and white paint** in a certain ratio. Today, she used **more red paint** but kept the **same amount of white paint**. How will today’s mixture compare to yesterday’s in color?"*  
"""

### 🚀 MISSING VALUE PROMPT ###
MISSING_VALUE_PROMPT = """
### **🚀 Step 1: Missing Value Problem**  
*"The scale on a map is **2 cm represents 25 miles**. If a measurement is **24 cm**, how many miles does it represent?"*  

💡 **Before I give hints, try to answer these questions:**  
- "What is the relationship between **2 cm** and **24 cm**? How many times larger is 24 cm?"  
- "If **2 cm = 25 miles**, how can we scale up proportionally?"  
- "How would you set up a proportion to find the missing value?"  

### **🔹 Common Core Mathematical Practices Discussion**
*"Now, let's connect this problem to the Common Core Mathematical Practice Standards."*  
- "Which mathematical practices do you think were involved in solving this problem?"  
- **Possible responses:**
  - MP1: Perseverance in problem-solving
  - MP7: Recognizing structure in proportional relationships  

### **🔹 Creativity-Directed Practices Discussion**
*"Creativity plays a big role in problem-solving! Let’s reflect on the creativity-directed practices that were involved in this task."*  
- **Possible responses:**
  - "Exploring multiple solutions" → "Yes! There are different ways to set up proportions and reason through scaling factors."  
  - "Making connections" → "Great! This task links proportional reasoning to real-world applications in maps."  
"""

### 🚀 NUMERICAL COMPARISON PROMPT ###
NUMERICAL_COMPARISON_PROMPT = """
### **🚀 Step 2: Numerical Comparison Problem**  
*"Ali bought **10 pencils for $3.50**, and Ahmet purchased **5 pencils for $1.80**. Who got the better deal?"*  

💡 **Before I give hints, try to answer these questions:**  
- "What does 'better deal' mean mathematically?"  
- "How can we calculate the **cost per pencil** for each person?"  

### **🔹 Common Core Mathematical Practices Discussion**
*"Which Common Core practice standards do you think were used in this problem?"*  
- **Possible responses:**
  - MP2: Abstract and quantitative reasoning  
  - MP6: Precision in financial decisions  

### **🔹 Creativity-Directed Practices Discussion**
*"Now, let’s think about the creativity-directed practices we engaged in during this task."*  
- **Possible responses:**
  - "Generating multiple representations" → "Yes! We could compare unit rates using **ratios, decimals, or tables**."  
  - "Flexible thinking" → "Absolutely! Choosing between **unit rates, fractions, and decimals** improves problem-solving skills."  
"""

### 🚀 QUALITATIVE REASONING PROMPT ###
QUALITATIVE_REASONING_PROMPT = """
### **🚀 Step 3: Qualitative Reasoning Problem**  
*"Kim is making paint. Yesterday, she mixed white and red paint together. Today, she used **more red paint** but kept the **same amount of white paint**. How will today’s mixture compare to yesterday’s in color?"*  

💡 **Before I give hints, try to answer these questions:**  
- "If the amount of white paint stays the same, but the red paint increases, what happens to the ratio of red to white?"  

### **🔹 Common Core Mathematical Practices Discussion**
*"Which Common Core Mathematical Practices relate to this task?"*  
- **Possible responses:**
  - MP4: Modeling with Mathematics  
  - MP3: Constructing viable arguments  

### **🔹 Creativity-Directed Practices Discussion**
*"Let’s take a moment to reflect on the creativity-directed practices involved in reasoning through this problem."*  
- **Possible responses:**
  - "Visualizing mathematical ideas" → "Yes! This problem encourages **visual reasoning about proportional change**."  
  - "Divergent thinking" → "Absolutely! Since there are no fixed numbers, we must reason creatively."  
"""

### 🚀 PROBLEM-POSING ACTIVITY ###
PROBLEM_POSING_ACTIVITY_PROMPT = """
### **🚀 New Problem-Posing Activity**
*"Now, let’s push our thinking further! Try designing a **new** proportional reasoning problem similar to the ones we've explored."*  
- **Adjust the numbers or context.**  
- **Would a different strategy be more effective in your new problem?**  

💡 **Once you've created your new problem, let’s reflect!**  

### **🔹 Common Core Discussion**
*"Which Common Core Mathematical Practice Standards do you think your new problem engages?"*  
(AI provides feedback based on the teacher’s response.)  

### **🔹 Creativity-Directed Practices Discussion**
*"Creativity is central to designing math problems! Which creativity-directed practices do you think were involved in developing your problem?"*  
(AI provides tailored responses based on the teacher’s answer.)
