Assessment

The Literacy Footprints Assessment is an easy-to-use complete kit that identifies the instructional and independent reading levels for students.

Leveled reading assessment · Grades K–6 · Levels A–Z

Know every reader's level — and help them progress

The Leveled Reading Assessment Kits make it simple to identify each student's reading level, monitor progress all year, and match every reader with the right instruction.

The Assessment covers levels A–Z and was specifically created to help teachers easily identify students’ instructional and independent reading levels, and to do that with ease, speed, and affordability.

What makes these kits different

Assessment books students actually want to read

Familiar, beloved characters

Every assessment book features the characters readers of our collections already know and love — so students walk into assessment feeling at home and teachers see what readers can really do.

Two books at every level

Assess at the beginning of the year and again later without ever repeating a text.

Data that travels

The Online Student Data Tracker records and monitors student progress and makes sharing information with administrators and families simple.

Bonus: every assessment kit purchase includes a Digital Reader subscription for one teacher for the current school year. Terms and conditions apply.
How it works

From assessment to the right instruction

The kits are designed so the path from assessing a reader to teaching that reader is short and clear.

Assess

The student reads a leveled assessment book while the teacher records reading behaviors using the printable forms.

Interpret

The teaching guide makes data interpretation simple, so identifying each student's instructional level is fast and reliable.

Track

Results go into the Online Student Data Tracker, building a clear picture of growth across the year for every reader.

Teach

Match each reader to the right books and lessons — the levels align directly with the Literacy Footprints Classroom Kits and Intervention Partner.
