Lexiles

Each student who takes the MAP Reading test receives a Lexile score.  Lexile is a measure of reading level.  Many libraries, including the Bismarck Public Schools district library, include the lexile level of books in the library database.

The Lexile website contains additional lexile information.  It has a lexile database, where one can look up a book by ISBN to determine its lexile, as well as a tool where you can type in a passage of text from a written source to determine lexile level.
