Free CogAT figure matrix worksheets

CogAT · Figure matrices · Grades 1–8

A figure matrix is a grid. Most of the cells hold a figure, and one cell is empty. The rows and columns follow a rule. You choose the figure that belongs in the empty cell. QuizPrint uses these nonverbal items from Grade 1 through Grade 8. The sample is Grade 4. Grade 8 matrices in our bank are the harder grids for that grade. This page shows the choices and does not mark one, and it does not explain the rule that solves the item. QuizPrint is not affiliated with Riverside Insights, and these worksheets are not official CogAT questions.
