About this resource
This quiz focuses on chapters 5 and 6 of Elie Wiesel's memoir "Night," examining the deteriorating conditions and moral complexities faced by Holocaust survivors in Nazi concentration camps. Designed for 10th grade students, the questions assess reading comprehension, character analysis, and thematic understanding of one of the most important Holocaust narratives in American literature curriculum. Students need a solid grasp of literary analysis skills, including the ability to identify significant details, understand character motivation, and recognize symbolic elements within the text. The quiz requires students to comprehend the religious and cultural significance of Jewish holidays like Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, analyze Elie's evolving relationship with faith and his father, and understand the brutal realities of camp life including selections, forced marches, and the constant threat of death. Students must demonstrate their ability to track plot development, recognize foreshadowing, and understand how extreme circumstances test human relationships and moral boundaries. Created by Jasmine Flores, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 10. This comprehensive assessment serves multiple instructional purposes, from checking homework completion to conducting formative assessment of student understanding before moving to the novel's final chapters. The quiz works effectively as a discussion starter for deeper classroom conversations about survival, faith, family bonds, and moral choices under extreme duress. Teachers can use this as a review tool before summative assessments or as a way to ensure students are prepared for class discussions about the memoir's most emotionally challenging sections. The detailed questions support close reading skills and prepare students for more sophisticated literary analysis tasks. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.1 for citing textual evidence, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.2 for determining themes, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.3 for analyzing character development, while also supporting social studies standards related to Holocaust education and human rights.
