Reading Level Chart

Selecting Books at the Right Level

Rosen Classroom understands the challenge of helping children select books that match their reading ability. We also recognize that every leveling system must be flexible to reflect the realities of individual students, schools, and districts.

Use this chart to match our books with the levels you need, or look for our DRA, EIL, and GRL throughout this website.

We also assign grade-based Reading and Interest Levels, however only you can determine which books truly suit your students’ needs.
