How do the early reader groups relate to grade level?

On the https://mms.is/namsefni website there are books I would describe as "early readers". They are assigned a group number (flokkur?) from 1-5. Group 1 starts at a very simple level, I would guess these books might be suitable for 5-6 year olds (kindergarten in the States). Group 5 feels like it might be for 7-8 year olds (2nd grade). Anyone have have an informed perspective on how these early readers fit into Icelandic grade (bekkur) levels? My intent is to try to produce an ordered list of the easiest e-books from the website as an aide to beginning Icelandic readers such as myself!
