About this resource

This quiz focuses on reading comprehension and recall of specific plot details from J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." Designed for upper elementary to middle school students (grades 4-6), these questions assess students' ability to identify key story events, character motivations, and cause-and-effect relationships throughout the novel. The questions require students to demonstrate literal comprehension by recalling specific details about character interactions, magical elements, and plot progression from the beginning of Harry's journey through his final confrontation with Voldemort. Students need strong reading comprehension skills, attention to detail while reading, and the ability to distinguish between similar events or motivations within the complex fantasy narrative. Created by Aaron R, an English teacher in the US who teaches grades 5-12. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for formative assessment following completion of the novel, allowing teachers to gauge student comprehension before moving on to more complex literary analysis activities. Teachers can use this as a chapter-by-chapter review, homework assignment, or warm-up activity to refresh student memory of plot details before class discussions about themes and character development. The quiz works particularly well for Accelerated Reader (AR) practice, as indicated in the title, helping students prepare for standardized reading assessments. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards RL.5.1 and RL.6.1, which require students to quote accurately from text and cite textual evidence when explaining what the text says explicitly.
