About this resource

This quiz focuses on Chapter 7 of J.R.R. Tolkien's *The Hobbit*, specifically examining students' comprehension of character analysis and plot details surrounding the introduction of Beorn. Designed for middle school students in grades 6-8, these questions assess reading comprehension skills including character trait identification, cause-and-effect relationships, and recall of specific textual details. Students need to demonstrate their understanding of fantasy literature elements, particularly the concept of magical creatures and their characteristics, while also showing mastery of basic literary analysis skills such as understanding character motivations and interpersonal dynamics. The questions require students to move beyond surface-level reading to analyze Gandalf's strategic thinking, Beorn's personality complexities, and the social relationships between different fantasy races within Tolkien's world. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying middle-grade English literature. This assessment serves as an excellent tool for checking student comprehension after assigned reading, whether used as a quick warmup to begin class discussion, homework to reinforce independent reading, or formative assessment to gauge student understanding before moving to the next chapter. Teachers can utilize this quiz to identify students who may need additional support with reading comprehension or character analysis before progressing further in the novel. The questions align well with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.1 for citing textual evidence to support analysis and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.3 for analyzing how particular elements of a story interact, making it valuable for standards-based instruction and documentation of student progress in literary analysis skills.
