A third-grade teacher has several students reading above grade level. Most of the remaining students
are reading at grade level. There are also a few students reading below grade level. She decides to
experiment. Her hypothesis is that by giving the entire class a chapter book above grade level, high-
level readers will be satisfied, grade-level readers will be challenged in a positive way, and students
reading below grade level will be inspired to improve. Her method is most likely to:
A. Succeed, proceeding students reading at an Instructional reading level. High-level readers will be
happy to be given material appropriate to their reading level. Grade-level readers will challenge
themselves to improve reading strategies in order to master the text. Because only a few students are
reading below grade level, the other students, who feel happy and energized, will inspire the slower
readers by modeling success.
B. Succeed, producing students reading at an Independent reading level. High-level readers will
independently help grade-level readers who will, in turn, independently help those below grade level.
C. Fail, producing students at a Frustration reading level. Those reading below grade level are likely to
give up entirely. Those reading at grade level are likely to get frustrated and form habits that will
actually slow down their development.
D. Fail, producing students reading at a Chaotic reading level. By nature, children are highly
competitive. The teacher has not taken into consideration multiple learning styles. The children who
are at grade level will either become bitter and angry at those whose reading level is above grade
level or simply give up. The Children reading below grade level will not be able to keep up and will in
all likelihood act out their frustration or completely shut down.
C. Fail, producing students at a Frustration reading level. Those reading below grade level are likely to
give up entirely. Those reading at grade level are likely to get frustrated and form habits that will
actually slow down their development.
