What is a lexile score?
Your child took an SRI quiz on the computer to determine his/her lexile score. A lexile score is a way of matching books with a student's reading level. You may find the lexile score for many books by checking this website: www.lexile.com (or go to "Helpful Links" on my website and click on Lexile). Click on the band that says "Families." Next, go to Lexile Book Database. You are able to enter the title or author of the book your child is reading or might choose to read to find out if it is a good book for him/her. Stay within 100 lexile points below and 50 lexile points above your child's current lexile score. Your child has a lexile bar graph page showing his/her current lexile score in his/her binder under the language arts tab. You may read additional information about lexile levels at the lexile website. I have books in my classroom library available for check-out. They are grouped by lexile to make the selection process easier for the students.Back to Top
