1 Getting Ready for the FSA Unit 5 Week 2 Apples to Oregon Quiz in FSA Format Fourth Grade, Reading Wonders By Ashlee Kinser 4 th Grade Edition

2 This product was designed to help my students learn a different format of testing besides multiple choice like what Reading Wonders provided us with. I plan to use this format whole group for several weeks until my students are comfortable with it. I plan on scoring it with certain points assigned to different task, with some more than others. Stay tuned for more quizzes for other weeks in Reading Wonders. Bonus: A set of pre- reading questions. I like to use this as morning work. It boost vocabulary and test background knowledge. Works great with informational text!

3 Name Getting Ready for FSA Reading Wonders: Apples to Oregon 1.) The Platte River was wider than Texas, thicker than Momma s muskrat stew, and muddier than a cowboy s toenails. By reading this sentence, describe what the Platte River might really be like. 2.) Circle the boxes that prove Apples to Oregon is a tall tale. Our feet were so hot that they were redder than the poison apple the witch gave snow white. Daddy was crying with a handful of branches pressed against his heart. Jack Frost came straight for me, and I didn t give up. The low- down scoundrel was hightailing it out of there. Gold was discovered in California, and thousands of people rushed there to seek their fortunes. 3.) Draw a line to show which sentence is cause or effect from the story Apples to Oregon. Cause Daddy never forgot my brave deeds on the trail. The peaches are plummeting! my sisters shouted. Effect I decided to look for water but I couldn t find a splash or puddle. After he sold his first bushel of apples, he bought me the prettiest pair of boots. We kicked ourselves to the other shore. I couldn t bear to see my daddy suffer. 4.) Do you think taking Daddy taking his apple trees all the way to Oregon was worth it? Use text evidence to support your opinion.

4 Name Before you read: Apples to Oregon 1.)What is the longest amount of time that you have spent in a car? Where did you go? 2.) Finish the sentences: The sun is so hot that. The dog is so lazy that. I am so thirsty that. 3.) What would the hardest part of traveling by wagon from here the other side of the country? 4.) If you were moving and you could take only one thing from your room, what would you take and why? 5.) How does an apple tree grow? Start with a seed and explain the life cycle of the plant.

5 Answer Key Getting Ready for FSA Reading Wonders: Apples to Oregon Name Key 2.) The Platte River was wider than Texas, thicker than Momma s muskrat stew, and muddier than a cowboy s toenails. By reading this sentence, describe what the Platte River might really be like. A really wide river, muddy, possibly deep. Hard to cross. 2.) Circle the boxes that prove Apples to Oregon is a tall tale. Our feet were so hot that they were redder than the poison apple the witch gave snow white.

Gold was discovered in California, and thousands of people rushed there to seek their fortunes. 3.) Draw a line to show which sentence is cause or effect from the story Apples to Oregon.
