About this resource
This quiz focuses on reading comprehension of "The Tiger Rising," a middle-grade novel by Kate DiCamillo. Based on the complexity and depth of the questions, this assessment targets 4th to 5th grade students (ages 9-11). The quiz evaluates students' ability to recall specific plot details, identify character relationships and motivations, recognize literary elements like symbolism, and demonstrate overall comprehension of the narrative structure. Students need strong literal comprehension skills to answer factual questions about events, settings, and character actions, as well as inferential thinking skills to understand character emotions, relationships, and the symbolic meaning of the tiger. The questions progress from basic recall of plot points and character identification to more sophisticated analysis of themes, symbolism, and character development, requiring students to synthesize information from throughout the entire novel. Created by Hannah Thompson, an English teacher in the US who teaches grades 3-5. This comprehensive quiz serves multiple instructional purposes in the elementary English Language Arts classroom. Teachers can use this assessment as a summative evaluation after students complete the novel, as a review activity before class discussions, or as homework to reinforce reading comprehension. The quiz works effectively for formative assessment to gauge student understanding before moving to more complex literary analysis activities. The mix of factual recall and interpretive questions makes it valuable for differentiating instruction and identifying students who may need additional support with either basic comprehension or higher-order thinking skills. This assessment aligns with CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.4.1 and RL.5.1 for drawing inferences and citing textual evidence, RL.4.3 and RL.5.3 for analyzing character development, and RL.4.2 and RL.5.2 for identifying themes and main ideas in literary texts.
