Leveled text
Leveled text – text that has been assigned a reading level based on various factors: vocabulary, number of different words, support from context, support from pictures, page layout. Leveled texts contain high-frequency words and other words that may not be decodable. Leveled text is designed for students who have mastered word recognition skills because reading these texts does not provide practice for decoding unfamiliar words accurately. Instead, students predict words from context and use picture clues to guess new words.
