Level 2C

On this page you will find a summary and practical resources that link to Level 2C.

At Level 2C, readers are managing text with more difficult and less familiar vocabulary. The reading tasks require the reader to move beyond the simple “scan and locate” tasks and use more critical thinking. Finding information at this level is more complex because the text is longer or the vocabulary has a higher level of difficulty.
