Page references for other titles by the same author All products in this catalog are packaged in durable library binders that are designed to withstand high circulation and varying temperatures. CDs are housed in sturdy vinyl sleeves within the two-ring binder. CD tracks are placed at editorially appropriate intervals, 3 to 5 minutes apart, so listeners can easily locate and return to points in the story. Listening Library offers three readability and listening levels to be used as a guideline for determining age-appropriate materials for the library or classroom. For furthur assistance, Accelerated Reader CD ® and Reading Counts! ® quiz numbers are listed next to titles in the index (pages 111-120). RL = Reading Level The Listening Library Reading Level is determined by the Fry Readability Scale and the Spache and Dale-Chall formulas. The reading level noted is a grade level. For example, a reading level of 6.4 means the book is appropriate for a sixth grader in the fourth month of the school year. NA means that a defined reading level is not currently available for the title or that it is a collection of books that have a variety of reading levels. IL = Interest Levels The Listening Library Interest Levels expand listening possibilities beyond that of a specific reading level and take into account story content that can be enjoyed by students both younger and older. The interest levels are noted as a range of grades. LL = Lexile Level Lexile Framework for Reading, developed by MetaMetrics, is a scientific approach to reading measurement that matches reader ability to text difficulty on the same scale. Lexile Levels do not translate specifically to grade levels. For more information on the Lexile Framework for Reading visit their website at www.lexile.com. NA means that a defined Lexile Level is not currently available for this title or that it is a collection of books that have a variety of Lexile Levels.
