The official Lexile® measures for the Katie & Kimble books are now available.
The Lexile Framework® for Reading is a scientific approach to measuring reading ability and the difficulty of reading materials. The Lexile Framework includes a Lexile® measure and the Lexile scale. A Lexile measure represents both the difficulty of a text, such as a book or article, and an individual’s reading ability. Lexiles are expressed as numeric measures followed by an “L” (e.g., 850L), and are placed on the Lexile scale. The Lexile scale is a developmental scale for measuring reader ability and text difficulty, ranging from below 200L for beginning readers and beginning-reader materials to above 1700L for advanced readers and materials.
Manage your students’ reading comprehension
Lexile measures allow you to manage comprehension. Matching a reader’s Lexile measure with a text with the same Lexile measure leads to an expected 75-percent comprehension rate—not too difficult to be frustrating, but difficult enough to be challenging and to encourage reading progress. You can further adjust anticipated comprehension simply by choosing more or less difficult texts within a student’s Lexile range, which spans 50L above and 100L below his or her Lexile measure.
