Sarah, thank you for the amazing resource you gave us. I checked out the Scholastic link and I love it. I am a second year teacher and still learning about reading assessments and different types of leveled text. In a class of 21 students I have levels from 1st grade independent to 8th grade independent, so I am always interested in finding all my students' interesting and exciting choices, at both the independent and instructional levels. I used the DRA2 with my 6th graders this year, so I understand those levels on the site, however, I don't know about the Lexile Framework or Guided Reading. The first I haven't even heard of, and the latter I am aware of in terms of an instructional strategy, but not as a leveled text program. I would appreciate anyone who could offer me an overview of these ways of leveling texts, as I'd like to be aware of as many as possible. Thanks. ~Kecia, 6th grade inclusion _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
