Have you seen anything like this before? 

What do you understand by this equation? 

How do you expand brackets? Grid/smiles and eyebrows 

How confident are you with factors and times tables? 

How is a square number formed? 

Using the whiteboard and the students answer I would work through the explanation. (X-5)(X+1)
