The elementary school our kid goes to seems to use this rating system:
https://www.readinga-z.com/books/leveled-books/ https://www.readinga-z.com/books/leveled-books/
Each grade level has 4 "levels". But each kid is on their own track. And while those books have assigned grades, the teacher assigns a pool of books for each kid based upon their actual reading level. And each week, the kids are supposed to pick 4 books from their pool to take home and read.
My daughter is in 1st grade and every week picks 4 "R/S" books (3rd grade). She has a friend that still picks books in the "D/E" category (late kindergarten/early 1st grade).
- realcul 5y agoThanks for sharing it. Will definitely check it out.
- bwb 5y agoIs that using Lexile to do that?
- bcrosby95 5y agoLooking up Lexile, it seems to be different from it, although you can probably cross correlate books to some extent.
- OJFord 5y agoThat's similar to what I recall from school myself, 20+ years ago. Iirc ours was based on colours, which was a nice dual because as you got more advanced the colour names themselves progressed from easy primary colours to secondary, tertiary - nicher vocabulary for the colour names before you'd even opened the book.
