What does a child demonstrate at Frustration Reading Level?

  1. They understand material without assistance.

  2. They can read 90% of the words correctly.

  3. They struggle to read and comprehend even with help.

  4. They can summarize the material effectively.

The correct answer is: They struggle to read and comprehend even with help.

At the Frustration Reading Level, a child struggles to read and comprehend text, even when provided with assistance. This indicates that the reading material is significantly beyond their current skills, leading to difficulty with both word recognition and understanding the content. This level reflects a lack of confidence and a high level of frustration, as the child may not only mispronounce a large number of words but might also fail to grasp the overall meaning of the text, despite support. Understanding this level is essential for educators, as it identifies when a child might need more tailored instructions or remediation to help improve their reading abilities.
