One page to give on the first day of the unit on patterns, before any teaching. Its six questions are on what the unit builds on: skip counting, even numbers to 100, multiplication and addition facts, and counting on by 10s and back by 100s. It has a Score line, and the key names the lesson each question leads into. The unit review and the unit test are packs of their own.
Give the pre-check on the first day and sort the class by what they missed: the patterns in the addition and multiplication tables are made of these facts and counts, so a student who misses the facts or the skip counting needs them beside the unit, and one who cannot pick out even numbers needs pairs of counters before the odd and even lesson. Nothing on the page asks for a pattern's rule yet, so a low score is no surprise; it shows where to start.
Use it to see what your child needs before the unit on patterns starts: skip count by 3s, 4s and 5s together, and ask whether the house numbers on your street are odd or even.

A check to give before the unit on patterns, on what it builds on. Students skip count by 3s, 4s, 5s and 10s, circle even numbers, answer multiplication and addition facts, and count on by 10s and back by 100s.
