junior reading books

[mistymom]

In our school the junior books start at level A and go up to level H. Does anybody know what these levels mean, also what age or in what year should a child be on. Any information you can give would be helpfull. Thanks in advance. x

Most schools give children a reading test at the beginning and end of each term don't they? This will give you an idea of their reading age - is that what you want to know?

My daughter is on D level. Just wondered what this actualy means. Also what the expected reading age was in ks2 to match these levels. Thanks for your reply.

I would make an appointment with her form teacher to be honest with you. She will be able to advise you best and I'm sure they wouldn't mind you asking - that is their job after all!! Sorry but I don't recognse the gradings on the reading scheme you mention - my son's school used the Cambridge reading scheme which I think is numerical.
