Colons/Semi Colons Quiz in ACT Style
This is an ACT-style quiz over Colon and Semi-Colon usage that I used with my Junior College Prep/ACT Prep course. I find it useful to quiz them in the format in which they will be tested. The subject of the reading is Kwanzaa, and is altered from Wikipedia in the style of a reading passage a la ACT. There are 8 questions on this quiz that should showcase the students' mastery of the skill of using colons and semi-colons.
