Reading Plus: What Is the DIfference Between G-Rate and I-Rate?

The G-Rate and the I-Rate work together to provide an overview of a student's reading rate.

G-Rate I-Rate
The G-Rate is the rate at which the Guided Window moves across the text as a student reads. The independent rate, or I-Rate, is the student’s rate when reading without the Guided Window.

When students read text in the Reading component (SeeReader), the text is presented in either a guided format or an independent format. In the guided format, students read text with the support of the Guided Window scaffold. In the independent or non-guided format, students are in control of advancing through screens of text at their own pace.
