Quiz for Chapters 1 & 2 of The Pearl

This resource provides an analysis of the first two chapters of 'The Pearl' by John Steinbeck. It outlines key plot events, character motivations, and symbolic imagery present in these chapters. Students are guided to understand Kino and Juana's initial lifestyle, the significant event of Coyotito's scorpion sting, the doctor's refusal to help them due to financial constraints, and Kino's discovery of the pearl, which symbolizes hope and impending conflict. The resource includes comprehension checks with multiple-choice questions, prompts for exploring the symbolism of the 'Song of the Family' and 'Song of Evil', and reflection activities on how the pearl affects Kino and his relationships in the village. Additionally, there are sections for students to summarize their learning and identify areas of confusion, enhancing their comprehension skills and connection to the text.
