Quest
OverviewThe purpose of this Quest is:• To assess your comprehension of the course text,
The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time India.
In addition to assessment, the aim of the Quest is threefold:• To promote peer-to-peer accountability;• To establish responsible study habits and
expectations for 8th Grade English Language Arts;• To practice recall, analytical, evaluative, and
synthetical skills orally
RulesWhile it has all of the appearances of a game, do not be deceived; this is an assessment.

permitted to choose your team members.• Each of you will be assessed individually on your
understanding and comprehension of the novel; however, you will receive a group grade.
• Each team will have 1 Lifeline, which will permit them to discuss with their team-members their answer; using the lifelines results in a .5 point deduction.
