Teaching Flexibly with Leveled Texts: More Power for Your Reading Block
Glasswell, Kathryn; Ford, Michael P.
Reading Teacher, v64 n1 p57-60 Sep 2010

Here we discuss concerns about leveling and propose that by observing and listening to the students in our classes we can develop more powerful ways with leveled texts.
