[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Blair, 9th grader: All American Boys [b]Seems appropriate - no complaints[/b][/quote] HL770L HL means High-Low -- high-interest and age-appropriate content at a [i]lower[/i] reading level. So these 9th graders may have interest in the book, but the reading level is 50th percentile...[i]for winter of 5th grade![/i] For those wondering, somewhat opposite of HL in the Lexile world would be NC, meaning Non-Conforming -- for high-ability students who still need age-appropriate content. Ninth-graders at the 90th percentile are somewhere close to 1500L. Not that something all the way up there is an absolute must, but even 25th percentile for 9th grade is above 1000.[/quote]
