Default concrete forms

Bit of a simple question, I hope:

I want to form for a 10x8' concrete pad for a shed. The spot I want the
shed in has a bit of a slope. I believe it to be about 4-5" over a 10' run.
The problem thus is how to build the forms to take out the slope in the
grade. I imagine a 2x4 in the back (high end) and a 2x6 in the front (low
end) but what is the best way to get the sides to go from 4" to 6". Of
course I may be way off in my thinking and would appreciate any other
thoughts.

Thanks.
