Sistema de evaluación de la lectura 2.0

Sistema de evaluación de la lectura (SEL) 2.0 provides a comprehensive view of each student’s reading abilities, assessing critical aspects of their literacy development. One-on-one assessment conferences uncover student reading behaviors in a way other assessments can’t, offering educators a deep understanding of each student’s strengths and areas for growth. Offering an assessment that is purpose-built for Spanish-speakers ensures that every student receives an accurate and unbiased evaluation of their reading abilities.

What's Included with SEL 2.0?

SEL 2.0 is divided into two distinct sets: System 1 and System 2.
  • System 1 covers text levels A to P, ideal for students in kindergarten through third grade.
  • System 2 covers levels K to Z, typically for students in second grade through eighth grade.
This overlapping in levels K through P ensures a smooth transition between the two systems and provides flexibility in assessment. Printed assessment books are packaged in a convenient storage sleeve. All other components are accessible digitally*:

Equitable Assessment Texts, Written for Spanish-Speakers

Books from SEL

The SEL 2.0 books are the most culturally responsive collection of assessment texts available! Each one is an original piece created by children's book authors and illustrators. An emphasis on own-voice creators ensures that the books are engaging and appropriate for the reader. This helps all students see themselves represented in the reading materials, which enhances engagement and motivation.

Understanding Early Literacy Development: Levels A-D

Student Assessment
Assessing students at levels A-D is crucial for understanding and supporting the foundational stages of their literacy journey. These early text levels, and the corresponding assessment protocols, are designed to capture a comprehensive picture of emergent readers' abilities-focusing on key aspects such as concepts about print, phonological awareness, and phonics skills.

Concepts About Print: Levels A and B
Level A and B texts are foundational tools specifically created to assess emergent readers' knowledge of print conventions, phonological awareness, and early phonics skills. At these levels, the focus is on ensuring that students can navigate books, recognize the direction of print, and understand basic letter-sound relationships.

Expanding Reading Skills: Levels C and D
Levels C and D are designed to build upon the foundational skills assessed in levels A and B, expanding students' early phonics abilities and comprehension. These texts provide a more structured approach to phonemic awareness and early reading skills, helping teachers understand how students are transitioning from emergent to early readers.
