Frustration
When a child is no longer able to decode, analyze, and evaluate text, he is said to have reached his frustration level.
When reading A-K level texts, frustration is reached when the text is read with 90-94% accuracy and a child demonstrates limited or unsatisfactory comprehension or when a child can read with greater accuracy but demonstrates no comprehension. Anything read below 90% accuracy at this level is deemed to be a frustration level text even if the child has excellent or satisfactory comprehension.
