About

This quiz focuses on reading comprehension and literary analysis of the memoir "Free Lunch" by Rex Ogle, making it ideal for middle school students in grades 6-8. The questions assess students' understanding of plot details, character relationships, setting changes, and thematic elements including poverty, family dynamics, and social stigma around free lunch programs. Students need strong reading comprehension skills to track character development, identify cause-and-effect relationships, and understand the emotional complexity of Rex's experiences with food insecurity and family conflict. The quiz also incorporates vocabulary development through questions about Spanish terms and word meanings, while requiring students to make inferences about character motivations and feelings. Higher-order thinking skills are demonstrated through questions asking students to analyze Rex's emotional responses and connect personal experiences to the protagonist's challenges. Created by Koriandar Johnson, an Other subject teacher in the US who teaches grades 5 and 8. This comprehensive assessment serves multiple instructional purposes, functioning effectively as a formative assessment tool to gauge student understanding after reading sessions, as homework to reinforce key plot points and character development, or as a review activity before summative assessments. The quiz can be used as a warm-up activity to refresh students' memory of previous chapters or as practice for standardized reading assessments. The variety of question types, from factual recall to emotional analysis, supports differentiated instruction and allows teachers to identify students who may need additional support with reading comprehension or literary analysis skills. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.6.1, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.6.3, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.1, which emphasize citing textual evidence, analyzing character development, and making inferences based on explicit and implicit textual information.
