[quote=Anonymous]Reading levels tend to be used to differentiate instruction for guided and independent reading, especially in the early elementary years. I don't equate reading level with intelligence, no one should. I have a student who still reads on the kindergarten level in the 3rd grade (he has severe learning disabilities) but he can explain and understand concepts easily. He can recall information easily as well, but he cannot read to learn he has to receive the information through other means. My grandfather was not skilled with reading or highly educated, but was an extremely smart guy. [/quote]
