(Matching reading materials with ability allows students to practice reading without becoming frustrated by the material.) Provide scaffolding support for students not ready for specific texts. Supplement workbook instruction with ability group instruction.

4 The Lexile scale 1700L The Lexile scale is a developmental scale. Advanced reader 1210L 1030L 980L 1680L 1340L 770L 220L 320L 560L Readers get a Lexile measure from a reading comprehension test. 0L (BR) Texts get a Lexile measure from a piece of software called the Lexile Analyzer.
