About

Based on the content of these fourteen questions, this quiz assesses fourth-grade students' reading comprehension of the "Hacked" series from ReadWorks. The questions focus on character identification, plot details, vocabulary in context, and recall of specific story elements across multiple installments of the series. Students demonstrate their understanding through multiple-choice responses that require them to remember key characters (Julia, Felipe, and Fatima), track plot progression including the hacker's demands and signature, and comprehend technical vocabulary like "debugging" and "distribute" within the story context. The complexity level aligns perfectly with fourth-grade expectations, as students must synthesize information across three different stories in the series while demonstrating literal comprehension skills and beginning inferential thinking about digital fingerprints and character motivations. Created by Karen Coleman, an English teacher who teaches grade 4. This comprehensive reading assessment serves multiple instructional purposes in the elementary classroom, functioning effectively as a summative assessment after students complete the entire "Hacked" series or as a formative check during guided reading sessions. Teachers can implement this quiz as a follow-up activity to independent reading time, use it for small group discussions about story elements, or assign it as homework to reinforce reading comprehension skills at home. The quiz structure supports differentiated instruction by allowing students to demonstrate their understanding through multiple-choice formats while building confidence with familiar characters and plot lines. This assessment aligns with Common Core standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.4.1 for citing text evidence, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.4.3 for describing characters and plot elements, and CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.4.4 for determining word meanings in context, making it an excellent tool for measuring student progress toward grade-level reading proficiency.
