About this resource
This quiz assesses 4th grade reading comprehension through detailed questions about Kate DiCamillo's novel "Because of Winn-Dixie," specifically covering the first ten chapters. Students demonstrate their understanding of character development, plot progression, setting details, and thematic elements as they recall specific events, character motivations, and story details. The questions require students to identify key information about protagonist Opal's relationship with her father and her search for connection, the unique characteristics of her dog Winn-Dixie, and the various characters she encounters in Naomi, Florida. To succeed on this assessment, students need strong literal comprehension skills, the ability to track character relationships and story sequence, and understanding of how individual story elements contribute to the overall narrative about belonging and family. Created by Cathy Christiansen, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 4. This comprehension quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool to gauge students' understanding of key plot points, character development, and setting details from the novel's opening chapters. Teachers can use this assessment as a reading check after students complete chapters 1-10, either as homework to reinforce independent reading or as an in-class review activity before moving forward with the text. The quiz works well for small group discussions where students can justify their answers with text evidence, helping to build critical thinking skills alongside comprehension. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards RL.4.1 for referring to details and examples when explaining what the text says explicitly, RL.4.3 for describing characters and settings in depth, and RL.4.2 for determining theme and summarizing text using key details from the story.
