What is the appropriate reading level characterized by a student correctly reading 90%-94% of the material?

Frustration level
Independent level
Instructional level
Advanced level

The correct answer is: Instructional level

The reading level characterized by a student correctly reading 90%-94% of the material is identified as the instructional level. At this level, students are able to comprehend the text with some assistance, allowing them to engage with more challenging material than they would be able to tackle independently. The 90%-94% accuracy rate indicates that the student is on the cusp of fully grasping the text but may need support for some of the vocabulary or concepts presented. In contrast, the frustration level occurs when a student reads below 90% accuracy, suggesting the text is too difficult without significant help. The independent level is defined by a higher accuracy rate of 95% or more, indicating that the student can read and understand the material on their own. The advanced level is not a standard measure in this context and typically does not correspond to a reading accuracy percentage; it more commonly refers to proficiency beyond basic expectations, rather than a specific instructional framework. Understanding these definitions helps educators choose appropriate texts for their students, fostering effective reading development.
