Ziptales - Reading Scheme

Reading Levels

Ziptales offers its own mapping of reading - shown below - which references Reading Recovery, Lexiles and Flesch (the three major internationally recognised readability measures).

The 10 stage scheme starts at the very simplest 'entry' level, for young children, whose reading amounts to recognition of simple words and sentences - Zip Stage 1 ... through to children who are capable of totally 'independent' reading of sophisticated texts - Zip Stage 10. The whole range of reading in a primary school is included - from Kindergarten (Foundation) through to Grade 6 and above.

These Zip Stage levels are to be found throughout the library, both on the individual story 'buttons', and on the top of every page of the story itself.

This readability scheme should be treated as a suggestion only.
