ELA Text Complexity Rubric Guide
The text complexity rubric is intended to assist educators in evaluating multiple dimensions of a text in order to determine the proper placement of that text within the curriculum.
The rubric addressees the three aspects of text complexity required for consideration in Common Core Appendix B: qualitative, quantitative, and reader/task match. Each of these three dimensions includes specific relevant categories, each of which is listed with a short explanation to assist users in making the best possible determination.
