Year 6 algebra knowledge organiser | Spring Block 2

This Year 6 algebra knowledge organiser brings together the key concepts and vocabulary taught across Spring Block 2, supporting pupils to see how algebra fits together as a coherent area of maths.

The organiser clearly sets out how letters are used to represent unknown values, the difference between expressions, equations and formulae, and how substitution is used to calculate values using the correct order of operations.

Key content includes expressions, equations, substitution, function machines, solving one-step and two-step equations, finding pairs of values, and solving problems with two unknowns, supported by bar models and tables.

This knowledge organiser supports teaching within the Year 6 Spring maths scheme and can be used as a reference during lessons or as a recap tool across the block.
