Students answer multi-step multiplication and figurative language questions. Part A has four multiple-choice questions about 8 wagons with 6 passengers, a personification example, and estimating a candy total. Part B has five fill-in-the-blank problems about 9 × 7 jack-o-lanterns, the author's purpose, and a rounding estimation.
Identifying figurative language in contextual sentences is more challenging than matching definitions and mirrors real reading tasks.
