About this resource
This quiz focuses on reading comprehension skills for a fictional story titled "Starry Night," making it appropriate for 2nd grade students. The questions assess multiple layers of comprehension, beginning with genre identification and progressing through literal comprehension of plot events, character emotions, and specific details from the text. Students must demonstrate their ability to recall factual information about characters named Josie and Ling, identify tools used for stargazing, and recognize facts about celestial objects like constellations. The quiz also evaluates higher-order thinking skills by requiring students to analyze character development, distinguish between true and false statements about astronomical concepts, and understand author's purpose. Students need foundational knowledge about story elements, basic astronomy concepts, and the ability to synthesize information to determine whether an author can have multiple purposes when writing. Created by Mr. Lynn, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 2. This comprehension quiz serves as an excellent tool for assessing students' understanding of a complete fictional text while reinforcing science concepts about astronomy and space observation. Teachers can use this quiz as a formative assessment after a guided reading session, as homework to reinforce comprehension skills at home, or as a review activity before summative assessments. The varied question types, including multiple choice, true/false, and select-all-that-apply formats, provide comprehensive feedback about student understanding across different cognitive levels. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.1 for asking and answering questions about key details, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.3 for describing how characters respond to events, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.6 for identifying author's purpose, while also supporting Next Generation Science Standards 5-ESS1-2 regarding patterns of daily changes in length and direction of shadows, day and night, and seasonal appearance of stars in the sky.
