Mathematics Section 1 assessment questions for Grade 3 focus on number patterns, missing values, closest totals, and comparing expressions. Students solve addition and growth-pattern problems, interpret coin-count constraints using a chart, and plan reading progress across a calendar to determine completion. The survey task requires filling tally marks so the mode becomes a specified value, followed by estimation of door height and geometry questions about angle types, ordering numbers, and identifying congruent shapes on a grid.
