Reading levels are a measure of how well a kid reads—they build confidence by guiding kids toward books that will challenge but not frustrate them. Schools usually measure a student's reading level by giving them a Lexile, Guided Reading Level, or Developmental Reading Assessment test.

Schools will assess the student's knowledge and abilities in English at the beginning of the school year or when the student arrives at school. Teachers can select from a variety of assessment tools to determine the language proficiency and language learning needs of their English language learners.

As the reading becomes more challenging, the Lexile level increases. 300-799 = easy reading (4th to 7th grade) 800-999 = intermediate level (6th to 9th grade) 1000+ = advanced level (10th grade and up)
