Level it Books

Level it Books is the excellent mobile app (iOS/Android) that people everywhere are using to scan a book and get a Reading/Lexile Level.  Educators are using it to create a digital library of class books, as well as creating a class roster of students w/ their Read Level.  Also, a user can add a book, select a "book of the day", and manually search for any book as well.  If you're a parent, librarian, or educator this is the perfect app for you to find the appropriate type of reading material for your student/child.

FluencyFinder

FluencyFinder is a wonderful app (Android/iOS) for assessing a student's Reading and Comprehension Level.  This is all done through a very easy interface that has educators/parents assessing students by the tap of a button on their mobile device.  All a user has to do is print out the Reading passage (grades 1st-8th), and then have student's read, while tapping a button as they make or correct errors.  Once finished, they get instant real-time results that can then be emailed via a tap of a button.  Also, a user can assess comprehension by selecting the comprehension questions that follow the Reading passage.  FlunecyFinder is even being used for ESL and Special Ed to help assess students.

FluencyFinder the leading iOS app for assessing Reading levels and comprehension has been updated to version 2.5.  The latest version has been redesigned for iOS 7 for a sleeker polished look.  Exporting results is easier w/ a email share button, and educators can now search through Reading passages.

FluencyFinder is an extremely easy app to use as all an educator has to do is print out a Reading passage (1st-8th Grade) and tap the timer to start assessing a student.  As a student corrects or makes a mistake, the teacher then taps the (+) or (-) button to score the student.  Once the passage is a read, the educator taps stop and instant real-time results are given unless they choose to go on to Comprehension questions.

"I just assessed my entire 4th grade class in half the time it usually takes.....it was so nice to not watch my stopwatch and finally be able to focus more effectively on the student's reading. My scores are right at my fingertips and I will be able to track them throughout the year. A true time saver with accurate and trackable results!! A MUST HAVE for all teachers!"

"As a lifelong advocate for a parent's role in their child's education and success, I very much appreciate this app. It gives parents a great tool for helping their child at home while supporting the role of the teacher at the same time. Thank you so much! Parents will find this very helpful!"
