About this resource
This quiz assesses second-grade reading comprehension skills through questions about the children's book "Mr. Putter and Tabby See the Stars" by Cynthia Rylant. The questions focus on literal comprehension, requiring students to recall specific details and events from the story. Students need strong reading comprehension abilities to identify key story elements including character actions, settings, plot sequence, and specific details like numbers and dialogue. The questions test students' ability to distinguish between what did and did not happen in the story, understand character motivations, and follow the chronological sequence of events. This level of detailed comprehension questioning is appropriate for second-grade students who are developing their ability to read chapter books independently and demonstrate understanding through multiple-choice responses. Created by Lateia Kelly, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 2. This comprehension quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool to evaluate students' understanding after reading this popular early chapter book. Teachers can use this quiz as a follow-up activity after guided reading sessions, independent reading assignments, or read-aloud experiences with the book. The detailed questions make it particularly valuable for checking comprehension during reading workshop rotations or as homework to reinforce reading skills at home. The quiz aligns with Common Core standards RL.2.1, which requires students to ask and answer questions about key details in a text, and RL.2.3, which focuses on describing how characters respond to major events and challenges in stories.
