Number and Shape Patterns Mastery Check for Grade 4
A 5-question mastery check for 4th graders that assesses number patterns and repeating shape patterns, aligned to standard 4.OA.C.5. Students write the next terms in arithmetic-style number sequences, identify repeating figures, and explain their reasoning in words or numbers, making it a solid end-of-unit quick check that fits within a single 20-minute block.

Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this as an independent exit ticket or unit checkpoint after students have practiced generating and extending number and shape patterns from a rule.
- Discussion question: How did you figure out the rule for the pattern, and how could you check that your rule works for the fourth and fifth terms?
- Scaffold for struggling readers: Read the directions aloud, and offer a number line or a fact table to help students count on by the given amount before they write their answers.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask them to create their own growing pattern with a rule that uses two operations and write a question that another classmate could solve.
- Estimated time: About 20 minutes for the full check, plus a few minutes for a quick review of common errors as a class.
