About this resource
This quiz focuses on comprehension and analysis of Christopher Paul Curtis's novel "Bud, Not Buddy," specifically targeting the sequence of events and character relationships throughout the story. Designed for 6th grade students, the questions assess students' ability to recall specific plot details, understand cause-and-effect relationships, and recognize character motivations within the narrative. Students must demonstrate their understanding of Bud's journey from the foster care system through his adventures riding the rails during the Great Depression to his ultimate discovery of family. The questions require students to track character development, identify significant story events, and understand the emotional and physical challenges faced by the protagonist. Success on this assessment depends on careful reading, attention to textual details, and the ability to distinguish between similar events or circumstances within the plot. Created by Selene Owens, an English teacher in the US who teaches grade 6. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for formative assessment following students' completion of the novel, allowing teachers to gauge comprehension and identify areas where students may need additional support or discussion. The quiz works effectively as a post-reading review activity, homework assignment, or preparation tool for more comprehensive assessments and class discussions about themes, character development, and historical context. Teachers can use these results to guide small group discussions, reteaching opportunities, or extension activities that deepen students' understanding of the Depression era and the foster care experience. The assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.6.1 for citing textual evidence and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.6.3 for analyzing how plot elements develop throughout the story, making it an valuable component of a comprehensive literature unit.
