Fahrenheit 451 Quiz Part Two ("The Sieve and the Sand")
I searched high and low for a basic, close reading test that would simply show me whether students did their outside-of-class reading of FAHRENHEIT 451, and I found that none existed that met my needs (detailed + easy to grade). I was not striving for higher order thinking...just a basic, Accelerated-Reader-type quiz that would demonstrate completion of the assigned reading. The higher order thinking questions come out after my students have completed the reading--through Socratic Seminar. Thus,

"Towers Falling"- Chapter-by-Chapter Reading Comprehension Questions
I have created reading comprehension questions for the novel "Towers Falling" by Jewell Parker Rhodes. The questions you will receive require students to answer "right there" questions, make inferences, text-dependent questions, and use evidence from the text to support their thinking. I have not included an answer key because there are many "correct" answers to the different questions. These questions are perfect for a read aloud, independent study, book clubs, exit slips, guided reading groups

The questions vary from "right-there" type of questions, to making inferences, some require a little bit of res

Character Cellphone Alternative Book Report Literary Analysis Middle High School
This character cellphone book report is an excellent way to get your students to think critically about the book they are reading. This is an alternative to a traditional book report because it really requires students to analyze the character, make inferences and think outside of the box. The great thing about this report is that it can be completed DURING reading, rather than waiting until a book is completed and risk forgetting important information. Students will use what they know to create
