Reading Levels Correlation Chart

Text Complexity Grade Bands and Associated Lexile Ranges (in Lexiles) - Updated January 2013

Reading levels are subjective. This chart is provided for general comparison only.

• Follett Library Resources reading levels are based on the actual difficulty of the words, grammar, sentence structure, etc., used in a book. A reading level of 1.3 means that a student in the third month of the first grade should be able to read the book without much difficulty.
• Fountas & Pinnell have expanded their reading levels to include Z+, which indicates a readability level of 9+ and would typically apply to a high school or adult title.
• Guided Reading levels are from the works of Irene C. Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell.
• DRA levels are from the Developmental Reading Assessment Resource Guide by Joetta Beaver.
• Lexile measures are from the Lexile Framework for Reading developed by MetaMetrics, Inc.
• ATOS levels are from Renaissance Learning, Inc.
