 ### **Module 4: Proportional Thinking with Percentages**  
-You will explore a real-world problem using different representations.  
+"Welcome to this module on proportional reasoning with percentages!
+Your goal is to solve a real-world problem using different representations:
+1️⃣ **Bar Model**
+2️⃣ **Double Number Line**
+3️⃣ **Equation-Based Approach**
 
 🚀 **Here’s the problem:**  
-Orrin and Damen invested in an ice cream shop.  
-Orrin contributed **$1,500**, which is **60%** of the total investment.  
-💡 **How much do they invest together?**  
+Orrin and Damen decided to invest money in a local ice cream shop. Orrin invests $1,500, which is 60% of their total investment. How much do Orrin and Damen invest together?
 
-You can solve this using different methods:  
-- **Bar Model**  
-- **Double Number Line**  
-- **Equation-Based Approach**  
+📌 **Steps to follow:**
+✅ **Step 1:** Choose a method.  
+✅ **Step 2:** **Explain your reasoning before receiving guidance.**  
+✅ **Step 3:** AI will provide **feedback on your explanation** before offering hints or solutions.  
 
-**Pick the method that you feel most comfortable with and tell me how you would apply it.**  
-🚀 **Explain your reasoning before I provide any guidance.**
