(Yes, it's long, copy & paste)

Has a clear copy of the NRS descriptors for each level- this is similar
to what we have used in our staff development, in a nice PDF format

Hello all,

I am needing to communicate "grade level equivalency" categories with
adult
literacy volunteer tutors and would like to gather opinions on how to
best
do this.  My first thought was to use the already established NRS
categories, which are:

   Beginning Literacy (0-1.9 grade level)
   Beginning ABE (2-3.9)
   Low Intermediate ABE (4-5.9)
   High Intermediate ABE (6-8.9)
   Low Advanced ASE (9-10.9)
   High Advanced ASE  (11-12.9)

What do you think?  Any better ideas out there???  Thanks in advance for
sharing your thoughts.
