## What BODMAS means in Year 6

BODMAS is a mnemonic for the order of operations:

- **B**rackets
- **O**rders (powers and roots)
- **D**ivision and **M**ultiplication (left to right)
- **A**ddition and **S**ubtraction (left to right)

In class, keep it practical. Students need to know *when* to tackle brackets first, that division and multiplication share the same priority, and that addition and subtraction do too. A short worksheet after a worked example gives every student something concrete to do.

You will also see **BIDMAS** (Brackets, Indices, Division/Multiplication, Addition/Subtraction) and **BEDMAS** (Brackets, Exponents, Division/Multiplication, Addition/Subtraction). Same idea, different naming. If your school or textbook uses one of those labels, use the matching pack so the language on the page matches what students hear in lessons.

## Australian Curriculum Year 6

Order of operations sits naturally in Year 6 Australian primary maths: multi-step number sentences, brackets, and applying a consistent order when more than one operation appears.

These packs suit:

- Year 6 classrooms revising or introducing order of operations
- Mixed Year 5/6 groups that need differentiated practice sheets
- Relief teachers and tutors who want a ready printable without writing a unit from scratch

We are not listing specific curriculum code strings here. Check your current Australian Curriculum documents (and your state or territory curriculum, if you report against one) for the exact content descriptions you need for planning and reporting.

## How to use in class

### 1. Warm up with a worked example

Put one multi-step number sentence on the board. Talk through BODMAS out loud. Students copy the order into their books before they see a full sheet.

### 2. Complete the worksheet

Hand out the Year 6 BODMAS worksheets. Students work independently or in pairs while the example is still fresh. Circulate and catch left-to-right mistakes on division/multiplication early.

### 3. Check and correct

Mark a few answers together. Ask students to explain *which* step they did first, not only the final number. That surfaces misconceptions faster than a silent mark.

### Handy classroom uses

- **Lesson opener:** one board example, then the worksheet for consolidation
- **Homework / revision:** one sheet before a quiz or NAPLAN-style number practice
- **Relief day:** clear printable with BODMAS written on the board as the success criteria
- **Intervention group:** smaller set of questions while the rest of the class does independent work

A worksheet alone does not teach the order. Your worked example does. The sheet locks it in.

## Free times tables warm-up (bonus)

This store's free download is a **times tables** warm-up pack, not a free BODMAS worksheet. If you want something free from the same seller while you decide on the BODMAS pack, use:

**[Free 3× multiplication and division facts warm-up / worksheets](/l/3-multiplication-division-facts-math-warm-up-worksheets-time-tables-revision-rapid-recall-routine/65f91c48-db0b-4f56-914d-c6fb9eea385f)**

Handy as a fluency starter before order-of-operations work, because division and multiplication facts still trip students up inside longer BODMAS questions.
