Lexile Levels
Lexile levels are reference points for grade-level equivalents in reading. You'll notice overlapping between the levels because there are slight differences in reading materials. Lexile levels are a reference point only. They are not a hard and fast rule. Students can read above their Lexile level if they are engaged in a topic that they really love. The reverse is also true - they may perform below their level with material that they don't find engaging.
