About

This quiz comprehensively covers chapters 7-11 of Harper Lee's *To Kill a Mockingbird*, focusing on crucial character development and plot advancement that occurs in the middle section of the novel. The questions are appropriate for 9th grade students and require both literal comprehension and deeper analysis of character motivations and thematic elements. Students need to understand the complex relationships between characters like the Finch family, Mrs. Dubose, and the mysterious Boo Radley, while also grasping the social tensions surrounding Atticus's decision to defend Tom Robinson. The quiz assesses students' ability to track significant plot events such as the house fire, the snow day, and the discovery of gifts in the oak tree, while also evaluating their comprehension of character traits and the novel's exploration of moral courage, prejudice, and coming-of-age themes. Created by Kelly Rowland, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 9. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool to gauge student comprehension before moving into the novel's climactic trial scenes. Teachers can utilize this as a reading check after students complete the assigned chapters, as a review activity before a major test, or as homework to reinforce key plot points and character development. The variety of question types allows students to demonstrate their understanding of both surface-level details and deeper literary elements, making it ideal for differentiated instruction. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.1 for citing textual evidence, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.3 for analyzing character development, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.2 for determining themes and analyzing their development throughout the text.
