About this resource
This quiz assesses fifth-grade students' understanding of vocabulary development and reading comprehension skills through their study of "Blancaflor," a traditional folktale. The vocabulary questions target essential academic words including synonyms (assuring/guaranteeing, guidance/direction), antonyms (detected/overlooked), word meanings (emerging, gratitude, previous), and contextual understanding through dictionary entries and example identification. Students must demonstrate higher-order thinking skills by distinguishing between similar concepts, understanding multiple-meaning words, and applying vocabulary knowledge in context. The reading comprehension questions require students to recall key story elements, analyze character motivations, sequence plot events, and identify the author's central message or theme. These skills align perfectly with fifth-grade expectations for literary analysis, where students move beyond basic comprehension to examine how story elements work together to convey meaning. Created by Kayla Bomeli, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 5. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool for Unit 2, Week 4 of the Wonders reading program, allowing teachers to evaluate student mastery of both vocabulary acquisition and story comprehension before moving to the next unit. Teachers can use this assessment as a warm-up activity to review previously taught vocabulary words, as independent practice to reinforce reading strategies, or as homework to extend learning beyond the classroom. The quiz format makes it ideal for quick progress monitoring, helping teachers identify students who need additional support with academic vocabulary or reading comprehension strategies. The questions align with Common Core standards RL.5.1 for citing textual evidence, RL.5.2 for determining theme and summarizing, L.5.4 for determining word meanings, and L.5.5 for understanding word relationships and nuances, providing comprehensive coverage of essential fifth-grade literacy skills.
