Looking to find out if your book is ACR? What is the book level?
If you are trying to find out if a book is ACR or what reading level a book might be, you can go to this web-site and search. Simply type in the book title and/or the author's name. If the book is found, then it is ACR. That mean that there is a quiz that the student can take to assess their comprehension. There is a place on the same page that says "B.L." or book level. This will give you a rough estimate as to the level of that book. If it says 1.5, then it is a first grade, 5th month level. 3.7 would mean 3rd grade, 7th month, and so on. |
