About this resource

This quiz focuses on Chapter 10 of "Summer of the Mariposas," a young adult novel by Guadalupe Garcia McCall that blends contemporary fiction with Mexican folklore and mythology. The content is appropriate for middle school students, specifically grades 6-8, as it requires students to demonstrate reading comprehension, recall specific plot details, and understand character motivations and supernatural elements within the narrative. Students need strong literal comprehension skills to identify key story events, character interactions, and magical elements such as witch owls (lechuzas), El Nagual, and el chupacabras. The questions assess students' ability to track character development, particularly Odilia's protective instincts and the sisters' relationship with the mystical character Teresita, while also testing their understanding of the prophetic warnings and folklore elements that drive the plot forward. Created by Sean Donagan, a teacher in the US who teaches grades 6-9. This quiz serves as an effective formative assessment tool for students reading this culturally rich novel that celebrates Mexican-American heritage while addressing themes of family, responsibility, and courage. Teachers can use this quiz as a chapter comprehension check, homework assignment, or review activity before moving to subsequent chapters. The questions support close reading skills and help students connect with the magical realism elements that make this text particularly engaging for middle school readers. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards RL.6.1, RL.6.3, and RL.7.1, which focus on citing textual evidence, analyzing character development, and making inferences about plot progression in literary texts.
