Leveling Guide i

Welcome to the Harcourt Achieve Combined Leveling Guide

Harcourt Achieve is pleased to provide this leveling guide as a service to our customers. We do not endorse any specifi c leveling system. The following leveling systems represent the ones most frequently requested by our customers:

FP = Fountas and Pinnell Guided Reading Levels:Matching Books to Readers, Using Leveled Books in Guided Reading K-3.Irene C. Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell. Heinemann, 1999.Guiding Readers and Writers Grades 3-6. Irene C. Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell.Heinemann, 2001.

DRA = Developmental Reading Assessment Levels:Developmental Reading Assessment Resource Guide.Joetta Beaver, Celebration Press, 1997.

RR = Reading Recovery® Levels:Reading Recovery is a registered service mark of the Ohio State University. The complete Reading Recovery book list, created by the Reading Recovery Council of North America, includes books from numerous publishers, since a premise of the program is that children be provided with a wide range of texts. One publisher’s book list alone is not suffi cient to implement a Reading Recovery program. Levels are subject to change as they are periodically tested and reevaluated.

EIL = Early Intervention Levels:Levels intended to help implement early intervention programs through the use of Harcourt Achieve Books. Levels are subject to change.

LEXILETM = Lexile Levels:“Lexile” and “The Lexile Framework” are trademarks of Metametrics, Inc. Lexile Levels indicate the reading demand of the text in terms of semantic diffi culty (vocabulary) and syntactic complexity (sentence length).

The leveling chart on page v roughly illustrates how these levels relate to other leveling systems and to grade levels.

Levels in this guide are subjective. Levels may change as the books continue to be used by our fi eld consultants and other educators working directly with students. Teachers are encouraged to freely adjust designated levels according to their personal evaluation.

Word counts listed for each title offer a reference regarding the length of each book. These word counts do not include the title of the book, but may include captions, labels, or any other words important to comprehending the text (which can be subjective).

When using a book, or a section of a book, for a reading record, it is recommended that teachers count the specifi c words a student will be reading in order to guarantee the exact word count of the text being used for the reading record.
