If you’ve ever looked at Made For Me Literacy and wondered, which level is right for your students, you’re not alone.
As MFML has grown over the years, so has the range of learners it supports. What started as a single bundle has evolved into a full system designed to meet students exactly where they are.
This guide will help you quickly understand each level so you can confidently choose what fits your classroom best.
Why the MFML Leveling System Matters
In a self-contained classroom, your students are rarely all working at the same level.
Some are just beginning to match and follow simple directions. Others are answering questions, sequencing stories, or writing sentences.
Made for me literacy curriculum is meticulously crafted for special learners. That’s why why it is designed as a leveled system, not a one-size-fits-all curriculum.
Each level builds on the one before it while keeping routines and activity types familiar.
Level A: Building Foundational Skills
Best for students working on early learning and foundational skills.
Level A supports students who are working on:
- Matching and sorting
- Following one-step directions
- Recognizing letters, numbers, colors, and shapes
- Beginning communication and engagement
You’ll see:
- Errorless learning activities
- Picture-to-picture and non-identical matching
- Simple, predictable routines
This level is ideal for students who benefit from highly supported learning.
Level B: Developing Early Literacy Skills
Level B is best for students ready for structured literacy activities with support.
Students begin to:
- Follow visual directions independently
- Answer WH and yes/no questions
- Identify story elements
- Practice simple sentence writing
You’ll see:
- Adapted books and comprehension activities
- Task boxes and centers targeting K–2 skills
- Writing with visual supports
- Cross-curricular activities like crafts and hands-on learning
Level B bundles are similar in skill but vary in themes and content length.
Level C: Expanding Comprehension and Writing
Level C is best for students working on upper elementary adapted skills.
Students work on:
- Answering higher-level comprehension questions
- Using graphic organizers
- Writing sentences and paragraphs with support
- Understanding cause and effect and problem and solution
You’ll see:
- More advanced reading response activities
- Structured writing with supports
- Centers targeting 3–5 adapted skills
- Hands-on, predictable routines
How to Choose the Right Level
Instead of focusing on grade level, focus on what your students can do right now.
Ask yourself:
- Can they match or answer questions?
- Do they need errorless support or can they follow directions?
- Are they working on words, sentences, or paragraphs?
Many classrooms use more than one level at the same time, and that is expected.
The goal is to support students at their current level while building independence.
