The unit test for the first unit of 3rd grade, what multiplying means. Pages 1 and 2 are Form A. Pages 3 and 4 are Form B: the same questions in the same order with different numbers, for a retake, a make-up or a second seating. Each form has 11 questions, one point each, and a Score line on its first page. Question 11 (show one fact four ways: equal groups, an array, adding and jumps) is for the states that teach it in this unit. The pre-check and the unit review are packs of their own.
Give Form A the day after the unit review. Questions 7 and 8 are six facts each: give the point when all are right, or score them by the fact if you like. The keys write 3 × 4 as 3 groups of 4 (and 3 rows of 4); a turned-around sentence with the right product shows the same understanding. Question 11 is taught in this unit in some states: leave it out if your class does not learn it and score out of 10. The answer keys name each question's skill, so a missed question points to the lesson to reteach.
Use Form B as a check after the unit. Look for equal groups and arrays at home (eggs in a carton, socks in pairs, windows in rows) and ask how many groups, how many in each, and how many in all.
