About this resource

This Dominican Republic trivia quiz focuses on the geography and cultural characteristics of this Caribbean nation, making it perfectly suited for middle school students in grades 6-8. The questions assess students' knowledge of fundamental geographic concepts including political geography (capital cities, political divisions), physical geography (mountain ranges, island geography), demographic data (population figures), and cultural geography (language, food, sports, music). Students need to demonstrate their understanding of basic geographic facts and their ability to distinguish the Dominican Republic from other Caribbean nations. The quiz requires students to apply their knowledge of regional geography, particularly the concept that Caribbean islands can contain multiple sovereign nations, as well as their understanding of how physical and human characteristics define a place. Created by Ann Kuhl, a Geography teacher in the US who teaches grades 6 and 8. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool that can be deployed as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge before beginning a unit on Caribbean geography, or as a review exercise to reinforce key facts after instruction. Teachers can use this as homework to encourage independent research and fact-gathering, or as practice before a more comprehensive assessment on Central America and the Caribbean. The quiz effectively supports standards NCSS.D2.Geo.1.6-8 (developing questions about geographic distributions and patterns) and NCSS.D2.Geo.6.6-8 (explaining how the physical and human characteristics of places and regions are connected to human identities and cultures), while also addressing factual knowledge components found in state geography standards that emphasize regional studies of Latin America and the Caribbean.
