1. Matrices

Grade 1 matrices question. An orange circle containing a green square becomes a green square containing an orange circle. A white circle containing a black pentagon must change in the same way. Choices A through D show different circle and pentagon arrangements.
Show answer and explanation for question 1

Answer C. The inner and outer shapes switch places while keeping their colors. The black pentagon moves outside, and the white circle moves inside it. This gives C.

2. Number puzzles

Grade 1 number puzzle. Four stars equal one star plus one star plus a missing box. Choice A has four stars, B has two stars, C has three stars, and D has one large star.
Show answer and explanation for question 2

3. Figural analogies

Grade 1 figural analogies question. Two downward triangles become three left-pointing triangles. Three downward arrows must change in the same way. Choices A through D show different numbers and directions of arrows.
Show answer and explanation for question 3

Answer D. The first pair adds one shape and turns every shape to point left. Apply both changes to the arrows: three downward arrows become four left-pointing arrows. This gives D.

Show answer and explanation for question 4

Answer C. The rods alternate between empty and six beads: empty, six, empty, six. The next rod must be empty. This gives C.

Grade 1 paper folding question. A square is folded in half and semicircles are cut from both sides of the folded paper. Choices A through D show different hole patterns after unfolding.
Show answer and explanation for question 5
