About this resource
This quiz covers Chapter 2 of Gary Paulsen's novel "Hatchet," focusing on the critical survival sequence where thirteen-year-old Brian Robeson must take control of a small aircraft after the pilot suffers a heart attack. Appropriate for 7th grade English Language Arts students, this assessment examines both literal comprehension and vocabulary development through plot-based questions and contextual definition tasks. Students need strong reading comprehension skills to track the sequence of events as Brian attempts radio communication, weighs his landing options, and ultimately decides to crash-land on water when the plane runs out of fuel. The quiz also requires students to understand technical vocabulary related to aviation and emotional states, including terms like altitude, horizon, co-pilot, transmitter, and frantic, which are essential for fully grasping the tension and technical challenges Brian faces in this pivotal chapter. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying 7th grade literature and vocabulary development. The assessment serves multiple instructional purposes, functioning effectively as a chapter comprehension check, homework assignment, or formative assessment tool to gauge student understanding before moving to subsequent chapters. Teachers can use this quiz as a warm-up activity to refresh students' memories of key plot points, or as review material when preparing for larger unit assessments on the novel. The combination of plot comprehension and vocabulary questions makes it particularly valuable for reinforcing both literary analysis skills and academic language development. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards RL.7.1 for citing textual evidence and drawing inferences, RL.7.4 for determining word meanings, and L.7.4 for vocabulary acquisition and use in context.
