, thank  you for the amazing resource you gave us.  I checked out the 
Scholastic  link and I love it.  I am a second year teacher and still learning about  
reading assessments and different types of leveled text.  In a class of  21 
students I have levels from 1st grade independent to 8th grade independent,  so 
I am always interested in finding all my students' interesting and exciting  
choices, at both the independent and instructional levels.  I used the  DRA2 
with my 6th graders this year, so I understand those levels on the site,  
however, I don't know about the Lexile Framework or Guided Reading.  The  first I 
haven't even heard of, and the latter I am aware of in terms of an  
instructional strategy, but not as a leveled text program.  I would  appreciate anyone 
who could offer me an overview of these ways of leveling  texts, as I'd like to 
be aware of as many as possible.  Thanks.   ~Kecia, 6th grade  inclusion
