What percentage of accuracy characterizes instructional level texts?

Less than 70%
90-95%
95-100%
Below 90%

The correct answer is: 90-95%

Instructional level texts are designed for students to engage with material that is challenging yet achievable, encouraging both growth and mastery of skills. The percentage of accuracy that characterizes these texts is typically in the range of 90-95%. This level of accuracy indicates that a student can read and understand a sufficient portion of the text to facilitate learning, while still encountering new vocabulary or concepts that can be taught or addressed through instruction. When students achieve this accuracy, it allows for a balance between providing enough challenge to promote skill development and ensuring that they can successfully navigate the material with support. Higher accuracy levels, such as 95-100%, often indicate that the text is too easy, which may not provide the necessary growth opportunities for the learner. Thus, 90-95% accuracy is the benchmark used to define instructional level texts in educational settings.
