Product description
From the author
Practice Grade 3 math and ELA skills with two printable tests, answer keys with explanations and teacher guides. The six PDFs total 64 pages, including teacher materials.
The math test has 43 numbered questions. The ELA test has 45 questions across three reading passages. Use selected tasks for review, then consult the keys and guides to plan follow-up teaching.
These are creator-made practice tests. Preview the PDFs before assigning: the first math array is not visible, and some ELA guide text is clipped at the page edge. The original files require attention before the pack can be treated as ready for independent use.

Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Student can solve one- and two-step multiplication and division word problems and explain the strategy used.
Student can compare, generate, and reason about equivalent fractions using a number line or visual model.
Student can compute area and perimeter of rectangles and composite rectangular figures.
Teaching tips
Divide the practice into shorter sessions if needed. Choose question groups yourself; the math guide’s proposed question ranges do not consistently match the printed item types.
Sort missed answers by the printed standard code after scoring to target reteaching to the two or three standards causing the most errors.
Use the class data tracker to group students by performance level (Advanced/Proficient/Basic/Below Basic) for small-group reteaching.
Skills covered
Multiplication and division fluency — students solve array, equal-groups, and fact-family problems drawn from 3.OA standards.
Fraction reasoning — students locate, compare, and justify equivalent fractions such as 2/4 = 1/2 on a number line.
Area and perimeter computation — students calculate the area of composite rectangular figures and solve for an unknown side given the perimeter.
