  1. SRI & Lexile Measures

  2. Using Lexile Levels and SRI Data for Improving Reading Instruction

  3. What is the purpose of Lexile levels? • To assess the reading difficulty of texts • To assess students’ ranges of reading comprehension • To predict how well a student is likely to comprehend a particular text

  4. What is a Lexile and how is it determined? A Lexile measure is an indicator of how difficult a text is to comprehend based upon: • Word frequency • Sentence length

  5. Lexile Correlation • Lexile ranges correlate to grade-level equivalents indicating at risk, basic, proficient, or advanced reading performance.

  6. How are students measured? • Students are measured using the Scholastic Reading Inventory or SRI • The SRI is an interactive test that determines students’ comprehension ranges in Lexiles

  7. Comprehension Skills Tested: • Paraphrase Information in Passage • Drawing Conclusions from Passage • Making Inferences • Identifying Supporting Details • Making Generalizations from Passage

  8. Goal: To match what we teach with students’ Lexile measures in order to leverage their success
