This Year 6 Form Expressions Teaching PowerPoint introduces pupils to using letters to represent values. Pupils will see different pictorial representations of expressions, using their developing knowledge of algebra to write additions, subtractions and multiplications in a simplified way. They will then use their knowledge of 2-step function machines from the previous step to represent the outputs as algebraic expressions.

The learning is broken into Let’s Learn sections, where new learning and vocabulary is modelled and Let’s Practise sections, where pupils immediately apply what has been taught in small sections.

To deepen understanding, this resource includes a reasoning question and a problem solving question to give pupils the opportunity to apply knowledge in new contexts.

The final slide also provides links to other resources for this step so don't forget to check those out.
