Assessing Comprehension with Book Quizzes

Assessing Comprehension with Book Quizzes

LevelUp books include brief comprehension quizzes. Students are automatically given a quiz after they complete a book (unless a teacher has adjusted the "quiz frequency" setting in My Classroom). Quizzes contain 5 or 10 multiple-choice items. 

Each quiz item assesses one comprehension skill and one ELA standard. ELA standards are specifically tailored to your location, based on your state, province, or territory. You can review student performance according to each skill and standard in Reports.

Lower-level quizzes on LevelUp include audio support. The student may click the speaker icon to hear the question and answer read aloud.
