Reading measures

Suggested reading age
ages 14–17
Ambleside year
Year 9 onwards · ages 14–17

An Ambleside year is a year of the Ambleside Online programme, not a reader's age. Year 0 is its first year, and a book used over several years shows the span. The ages beside it are that band offered two grades up and none down, which is how we offer a band; they are a placement, not a reading measure.

Historical interest, mainly: the best-selling observations of a parson on the natural world of his parish. Fascinating to see how science worked back in the day, with amateurs observing, theorising and communicating.
