The correct answer is: A systematic way books transition from one difficulty level to another

Leveling in relation to books refers to a systematic approach to categorizing texts based on their difficulty, allowing educators and readers to easily identify which books are suitable for particular reading levels. This process involves assessing various factors, including vocabulary complexity, sentence structure, themes, and the readability of the text, to ensure that learners are matched with books that are appropriately challenging for their skills and development. By using leveling, educators can facilitate targeted instruction, helping students to progress in their reading abilities while also promoting engagement with texts that they can comprehend. This structured approach also aids in guiding students toward appropriately challenging materials that can bolster their literacy skills without causing undue frustration.
