About this resource
This quiz assesses students' comprehension and literary analysis skills for Elie Wiesel's memoir *Night*, focusing on the first four chapters. Designed for grades 8-12, the assessment evaluates both literal comprehension of plot details and character information alongside higher-order analytical skills including identification of literary devices such as foreshadowing, symbolism, metaphor, and simile. Students must demonstrate understanding of historical context surrounding the Holocaust, including the systematic dehumanization processes, ghettoization, and deportation to concentration camps. The quiz requires students to connect textual evidence with thematic elements, analyze the significance of specific scenes like the hanging of the pipel, and recognize how Wiesel employs figurative language to convey the horror and dehumanization experienced during this historical period. Students need strong reading comprehension skills, knowledge of literary terminology, and the ability to interpret symbolic meaning within the context of memoir as a literary genre. Created by Karen Conner, an English teacher in the US who teaches grades 8-12. This comprehensive assessment serves multiple instructional purposes, functioning effectively as a formative assessment tool to gauge student understanding before progressing to later chapters, or as a summative evaluation of student comprehension for the opening section of the memoir. Teachers can utilize this quiz for homework assignments to reinforce reading accountability, as a review activity before class discussions, or as a warm-up to activate prior knowledge before deeper textual analysis. The quiz supports classroom instruction by ensuring students have mastered essential plot points and character details necessary for understanding the memoir's progression, while simultaneously building their analytical skills through figurative language identification. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.1 for textual evidence analysis, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.4 for figurative language interpretation, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.6 for analyzing author's point of view in historical contexts.
