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,

This is only a beginning step in the scaffolding process to understanding symbolism. I teach 10th grade, but many of my students are low level. I could see this being us
