To match students with books they can read and comprehend confidently, Literacy Pro uses the their Lexile range and interests.
Student Interests + Lexile Range = Good-Fit Books
A student’s Lexile range is from about 100L below their Lexile to about 50L above. If students read books within this range, research shows that they are expected to read and comprehend confidently and independently.
Another factor that enhances enjoyment of reading and comprehension is that the book being read is about a topic of student interest.
So, when students log into Literacy Pro, they will find a list of recommended titles within their Lexile range and interests on their Home page.
