Next Steps for Instruction
Results indicate that Daniel will benefit from instruction and practice in the skills shown below.
Continue to teach story elements. Support Daniel in extending the following skills to Level 2 text:
• Identify the main characters and the setting, or when and where the story takes place.
• Identify the problem the characters face, any significant events that include attempts to solve the problem,
and the resolution that explains how the problem is solved.
• Identify each of these events as belonging to the beginning, middle, or end of the story.
Use a graphic organizer to help Daniel keep track of important details during reading.
Continue to teach comparing and contrasting. Model using signal words that are used to communicate
similarities and differences, such as like, both, same, but, unlike, and different. Then guide Daniel to use a
Venn diagram to depict similarities and differences between characters, events, and versions of the same story
in Level 2 texts.
Provide additional practice with retelling. Explain that a good retelling includes the names of the main
characters and the setting. It also includes a brief description of the key events in the order in which they
happen, including the problem the characters have and an explanation of how the characters solve the
problem. Guide Daniel to retell a Level 2 story. As needed, provide follow-up questions and feedback such as
“What happened right before that?” to focus the retelling.
Introduce message, lesson, or moral. After reading a Level 2 narrative text such as a fable, discuss the
central message, or the big idea that the author wants the reader to take away from the story. Prompt Daniel to
ask these questions during and after reading:
• “What lesson does the main character learn?”
• “What lesson did I learn from the story?”
• “What is the moral of the story?”
• “What is the author trying to tell the reader?”
Teach about author’s purpose. Use a variety of familiar texts to demonstrate that an author’s purpose, or
reason, for writing may include to inform, to persuade, or to entertain. Model for Daniel how to determine the
author’s purpose in new texts by asking and answering questions such as these:
• “What is this book mostly about?”
• “Is it serious or silly?”
• “Did I learn anything from this book?”
• “Why do I think the author wrote this?”
• “What details make me think so?”

why, and how to demonstrate understanding of key
details in Level 2 literary or informational text.
Make inferences based on textual evidence. Draw
conclusions or make inferences in Level 2 literary or
informational text.
Next Steps for Instruction
Results indicate that Daniel will benefit from instruction and practice in the skills shown below.
Continue to teach sequence of events. Emphasize using signal words to identify what happened first,
second, next, and last in an informational text. Work with Daniel to brainstorm a list of signal words, such as
first, second, third, then, next, finally, after awhile, and eventually. Then encourage the child to sequence the
events in a retelling of an important part of a text.
Extend understanding of cause and effect.
• Define cause as something that happens. Define effect as something that makes something else happen.
• Read aloud an informational book and model the thought processes behind discovering cause-and-effect
relationships.
• Say, “When I read, I think about things that happen and why those things happen.”
• Model asking and answering questions such as “What happened?” and “Why did it happen?”
• Then have Daniel read an informational text in a small group, asking and answering these questions.
Continue to teach comparing and contrasting. Model using signal words that are used to communicate
similarities and differences, such as like, both, same, but, unlike, and different. Then guide Daniel to use a
Venn diagram to depict similarities and differences between people, places, events, and versions of the same
Level 2 texts.
Extend understanding of main idea and supporting details.
• Have Daniel read an informational paragraph.
• Ask the child to identify the person, animal, place, or thing that the paragraph is mostly about. Then have
Daniel identify details that tell the most important information about this subject.
• Model for the child how to condense this information into one main-idea statement of ten words or fewer.
Build understanding of evaluating an argument. Ask Daniel a question such as this: “What is the most fun
sport to play?” Use the child’s answer to identify the point and the supporting reasons. Transfer this exercise
to identifying a point and supporting reasons in an informational text. Use a graphic organizer to show the
relationship between ideas.
Teach about author’s purpose. Use a variety of familiar texts to demonstrate that an author’s purpose, or
reason, for writing may include to inform, to persuade, or to entertain. Model for Daniel how to determine the
author’s purpose in new texts by asking and answering questions such as these:
• “What is this book mostly about?”
• “Is it serious or silly?”
• “Did I learn anything from this book?”
• “Why do I think the author wrote this?”
• “What details make me think so?”

Lexile® Measures and i-Ready
Read more about Lexile Measures and the
research we conducted to link i-Ready scale
score with Lexile Measures.
The Lexile® Framework for Reading is a scientific approach to measuring reading ability and the difficulty of reading materials which was developed by MetaMetrics®, an educational research
organization located in Durham, NC. The Lexile Framework includes a Lexile measure and the Lexile scale. A Lexile measure represents both the complexity of a text, such as a book or article, and
an individual’s reading ability. Lexile measures are expressed as numeric measures followed by an “L” (e.g., 850L), and are placed on the Lexile scale. The Lexile scale is a developmental scale
for measuring reader ability and text complexity, ranging from below 200L for beginning readers and beginning-reader materials to above 1700L for advanced readers and materials. Knowing the
Lexile measures of a reader and a text helps to predict how the text matches the reader’s ability—whether the text may be too easy, too difficult, or just right.
The i-Ready Diagnostic Reading Assessment has been statistically linked with the Lexile Framework, making it possible to provide an equivalent Lexile measure for every Overall Scale Score.
Due to this linking, you may see some fluctuation in students’ Lexile measures. For example, if a student’s Overall Scale Score goes down, his or his Lexile measure will also go down. This lower
Lexile measure and Lexile range will be reported out on the student’s Student Profile Report. Before advising a student to a change in his or his Lexile measure, consider the situation. Is it possible
that the student simply had a bad day on testing day? Does it look like the student rushed through the Diagnostic? If this is the case, have the student continue reading within the previously
reported Lexile range and monitor his or his comprehension. Make adjustments to the student’s Lexile range as you see fit.
A Lexile measure is a powerful tool that you can use to help your students grow as readers. For more information on any of the following topics, visit www.Lexile.com.
• Lexile measures at home and at school
• Lexile measures and grade levels
• Managing multiple Lexile measures

“Find a Book, i-Ready”
Learn more about how i-Ready makes it easy to find books that
are at the right level and are interesting for your students. A great
resource to help develop students’ reading over the summer and
throughout the school year.
Young readers have a much better chance of successfully applying the reading skills and strategies they are learning when they are matched with “just right” texts—those that provide just the right
mix of challenge and support. “Find a Book, i-Ready” (http://www.Lexile.com/fab/i-ready) is a tool that enables you to search for books and other reading materials that have the same or close
to the same Lexile measure as a student or group of students. Incorporate “Find a Book, i-Ready” into your classroom with activities such as the ones below. As students become increasingly
independent, consider having them register for their own “Find a Book, i-Ready” account so that they can create, save, and print their own customized reading lists.
Organize browsing bins.
• Organize the Lexile measures of the students in your class into groups that span approximately 150L each. Be sure that each student’s Lexile measure falls within one of the groups.
• Use “Find a Book, i-Ready” to create a list of books within each Lexile group. Strive to incorporate a variety of topics and styles into your lists. Use your completed lists to locate books in your
class, school, or local library.
• To create browsing bins, sort the titles you gathered into containers, one container for each Lexile group you created. Then label each container with the names of the students whose Lexile
measures correspond to the Lexile range of the browsing bin.
• Schedule a period of time for reading each day. Independent readers may choose a book from their designated bin. Emergent readers may choose a book for you to read aloud to them.
• Change the selection of books in each bin on a regular basis to help increase students’ exposure to a wide range of reading materials.
Create book displays.
• Use current themes in your curriculum to create classroom book displays.
• Search “Find a Book, i-Ready” to identify books on the topic in various Lexile ranges so that the entire class can read and learn about the same topic.
• Work with your school librarian to locate these books for display.
Scaffold book searches.
• As early readers become increasingly independent, guide them through the steps for using “Find a Book, i-Ready” to create their own custom reading lists.
• Ask students to list three favorite books. Then have them tell why they liked each book so much.
• Help students identify the genre of each book. Prompt as necessary with questions such as, Was the book exciting? Were the characters funny? Did the book tell facts about something in
real life?
• Explain that “Find a Book, i-Ready” is a tool that can help students find books they might be interested in, and that they can get to it from any computer that connects to the Internet.
• Model how to navigate to “Find a Book, i-Ready,” enter a Lexile range, and choose search categories that seem interesting. Then demonstrate how to get more information about a book by
clicking on the title or the cover and how to add a book to a reading list by clicking on “Add to My Reading List.”
• Allow students to practice searching for a book independently, and offer feedback as needed.
• Send home a copy of the “Find a Book, i-Ready” handout, which is located in the “For Parents” section of the Resources tab.
