About this resource

This quiz assesses students' comprehension of chapters 12-16 from Harper Lee's *To Kill a Mockingbird*, making it appropriate for 9th through 12th grade English Language Arts classes. The questions focus on character development, plot progression, and literary devices as the novel builds toward the climactic trial of Tom Robinson. Students need strong reading comprehension skills to track multiple characters and their relationships, understand the social dynamics of 1930s Maycomb, Alabama, and recognize how Lee uses foreshadowing and symbolism to develop themes of racial injustice, moral courage, and loss of innocence. The quiz requires students to analyze character motivations, interpret dialogue, and understand the significance of key scenes like the church visit, Dill's arrival, and the confrontation at the jail, all while recognizing how these events contribute to Scout's moral education and the novel's exploration of prejudice in the American South. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying American literature in grades 9-12. Teachers can effectively use this assessment as a reading check to ensure students are keeping up with assigned chapters, as a review tool before major tests or discussions, or as formative assessment to gauge comprehension before moving into analysis of themes and literary techniques. The detailed questions about character interactions and plot events make it ideal for homework assignments or in-class warm-ups that prepare students for deeper literary analysis. This quiz supports Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.1 and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.3, as it requires students to cite textual evidence and analyze how complex characters develop throughout the text, while also addressing CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.2 through questions that connect to the novel's emerging themes of justice, morality, and social inequality.
