The unit test on patterns. Pages 1 and 2 are Form A. Pages 3 and 4 are Form B: the same kinds of question in the same order with different numbers, for a retake, a make-up or a second seating. Each form has 12 questions, one point each, and a Score line on its first page. The first page of each form (questions 1 to 6) is the Common Core unit: the addition table, the times table, and odd and even. The second page (questions 7 to 12) is for the states that teach number patterns by a rule, finding a mistake and the number at a position, growing shape patterns and input-output tables in 3rd grade. The pre-check and the unit review are packs of their own.
Give Form A the day after the unit review. A Common Core class can give only the first page of each form and score it out of 6; give the second page too where your state teaches those patterns, or leave out the questions your class does not learn. On a pattern question, the missing numbers and the rule together are worth the point. 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. Ask your child to tell you the rule of each pattern in words, and how they knew a sum would be odd or even without adding.

The unit test for patterns in the addition and multiplication tables and number patterns, in two forms. Students fill in parts of the tables and tell how their numbers change, predict odd and even sums and products, find a pattern's rule and its mistake, extend shape patterns and complete input-output tables.
