There are multiple ways that books are leveled for children. A common method used is by incoorporating a lettering system in which the letters of the alphabet are coordinated to particular grades as the chart above depicts. It all depends upon which leveling program a school uses, but the programs that use the lettering method are very similar to each other. The above chart is very helpful, but if you are interested in a full chart that contains comparisons of the variety of leveling programs, then click the follow links, but remember leveling comparisons are only close approximations: Pinterest 1, Pinterest 2, PDF
