Little Critter Books-Numbers, Shapes- Mercer Mayer Be sure to also rely on standardized scores and classroom performance for a clearer picture of a student's ability.* *Please note that the F&P scale is not a scientifically backed metric, simply an informal assessment to match students to appropriate books. See the reading level correlation chart to the left for how all of the leveling systems line up. I have included in the chart and book list below where the "grade levels" would fall, but I would not recommend using the grade levels as your primary leveling system. See above (or left- mobile vs desktop) for a description of each level (directly from Fountas and Pinnell). This makes it easier to find the just-right level book for a student and to have a clearer picture of how to challenge them to improve reading levels. "I read at a second grade level"), (b) it is easy to find the F&P level of a book with the technology we have (see websites and apps tab to learn how), and (c) it divides books into 28 levels- AA (pre-reader) through Z+ (Adult). I find this leveling system to be particularly useful because (a) it does not consistently remind underperforming students of their shortcomings (imagine a 4th grade student saying, "I'm a level K reader!" vs. Instead, I use a combination of standardized reading assessments and the informal Fountas and Pinnell reading level assessments.
Not only are all students within a particular grade level completely different in terms of age and ability, but the "grade level" reading levels are incredibly broad and not specifically helpful. One common misconception is that there is a specific "grade level" reading expectation.
