About this resource
This quiz focuses on Chapter 9 of F. Scott Fitzgerald's *The Great Gatsby*, specifically examining the aftermath of Gatsby's death and the novel's conclusion. Designed for grades 9-12, these questions require students to demonstrate comprehensive reading comprehension, character analysis, and understanding of Fitzgerald's thematic development. Students need to recall specific plot details about Gatsby's funeral arrangements, the reactions of various characters to his death, and the revelation of Gatsby's past through his father's visit. The questions also assess students' ability to analyze character motivations and relationships, particularly Nick's role as narrator and moral observer, Tom and Daisy's callous abandonment of responsibility, and the symbolic significance of Gatsby's childhood schedule and goals. Students must understand Fitzgerald's use of metaphor, especially Jordan's "bad driver" comparison, and recognize how the author uses the final chapter to crystallize his critique of the wealthy elite's moral bankruptcy. This quiz was created by a classroom teacher who designed it for students studying American literature in grades 9-12. The assessment serves multiple instructional purposes, functioning effectively as a reading comprehension check after students complete Chapter 9, a review tool before final exams, or formative assessment to gauge student understanding of the novel's conclusion. Teachers can use this quiz as a warm-up activity to begin class discussions about the novel's themes, assign it as homework to reinforce reading assignments, or incorporate it into stations-based learning where students rotate through different activities. The variety of question formats, from specific plot details to broader character analysis, allows teachers to differentiate instruction and identify which students may need additional support with textual analysis. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.1 and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.3, as students must cite textual evidence and analyze character development throughout the literary work.
