You have several options to choose from depending on how you like to level your books:
* Grade Equivalent- 1.0- 12.9
* Guided Reading- A-Z
* DRA- A, 1- 80
* Lexile Measure- 200L- 1600L
I like to use the Guided Reading (A-Z) measuring system.
So let's say I got a new book, Snowmen At Night- LOVE the Snowmen books! And I need to get it leveled for my baskets.
Click on the leveling system you want to use. I would click Guided Reading, type in the name of the book, and click find book.
This is such an easy way for me to level my books, stick a leveling sticker on it and in the basket it goes- so simple.
If you need a quick way to level your books, you might want to give Book Wizard a try. Clicking on the Book Wizard pictures above will take you right there!
