Information regarding the Common Core State Standards this product meets is available at: Re a da b i l i t y Sc o r e s The Flesch-Kincaid Readability scale was used to ensure that all stories are at the desired reading level. Readability scales are useful as long as one realizes their limitations. Results are approximate guidelines only, with a minimum margin of error of (+ or ) 1.5 grade levels. In other words, a story measured at a second grade readability level could easily be suitable for both first and third graders. Another limitation is that two different readability scales can be applied to the same sample, yet yield widely varied results. In spite of the inexact nature of readability scales, we at Remedia use them because they measure word and sentence length, both valid predictors of readability. They also help us provide vocabulary-controlled materials in order to meet the special education needs of many of our valued clients. At the same time, we realize that these scales are not designed to measure every other factor affecting readability, such as sentence structure or appeal to the reader. We are also aware of the variance in standards and expectations set for each grade level. What is first grade material in one school may be second grade material in another. At Remedia, we strive to take all these factors into consideration as we develop and revise materials. We leave the rest in your capable hands. Regarding readability, you and your students will be the final judge.
