Satisfactory -- Students scoring at the "satisfactory" level are performing in the range that is typically associated with grade-level expectations. These students use basic reading skills to comprehend grade-appropriate text. In particular, these students identify the elements of fiction and nonfiction, relevant textual details, and obvious cause and effect -- draw conclusions -- organize information in a provided form -- use text to initiate research -- and read and comprehend a variety of texts.

Unsatisfactory -- Students scoring at the "unsatisfactory" level lack the basic reading skills needed to meet typical grade-level expectations. Although some students in this group may be near the "satisfactory" level and may be progressing in their reading skills, they are still performing at a low enough level to generate concern. In particular, these students locate general information in fiction and nonfiction -- follow brief directions -- identify simple similarities, basic story elements, and obvious problems -- make basic comparisons -- begin to organize information in a provided form -- and begin to use text to initiate research.
