In #ALevelMaths last Thursday, I delivered a live lesson where the GLOW Developing A Level Maths pedagogy workgroup collaboratively planned on the equation of a circle. What an experience for the students who engaged brilliantly and represented the school; and for the teachers who jointly planned!

A new A level task. Really enjoyed watching the students think about this one: kshancock.co.uk/aleveltasks.... #MathsToday

A blank parametric equations worksheet displayed as a table. Columns are titled: x = p(t), y = q(t), Cartesian Equation f(x,y), Intersection with axes, Constraint on t, Domain, Range, and Sketch. Five rows contain given parametric pairs such as x = 3 – t, y = –4 + 3t; x = 3t², y = 6t; x = 4 cos t, y = 2 sin t; x = 1 + 2 cos t, y = 3 + 2 sin t; and x = e²ᵗ, y = e³ᵗ, with remaining columns left blank for students to complete

second blank parametric equations worksheet in table format. Columns match the first sheet: x = p(t), y = q(t), Cartesian Equation f(x,y), Intersection with axes, Constraint on t, Domain, Range, and Sketch. Five rows include parametric definitions such as x = t² – 1, y = t(t² – 1); x = 3 cos 2t, y = 2 cos t; x = 1 + 2t², y = –3 + 4t; x = ln(t – 2), y = 1/(t + 1) with t > 3; and x = cot t, y = 3 sin t for 0 ≤ t ≤ π, with other columns empty for completion.

I really do think that colour is helpful to identify steps in multi stage problems. But there is also scope to use it to link parts of a solution to the words in the question.

Solution to a question on finding the equation of the perpendicular bisector of points (4,-3) and (-2,7). Use of colour to highlight how parts connect to the question words.
