About Spanish Lexile® Measures for Reading
Lexile Measures for Spanish-Speaking Students | El Sistema Lexile® Para Leer
The number of English Language Learners (ELLs) in the United States continues to grow. However, each state is unique, with certain schools and districts where accelerating achievement for ELLs is a priority. Of those students who speak English as a second language, Spanish-speaking students are now the second-largest student population enrolled in public schools.1
El Sistema Lexile Para Leer is a unique reading framework for Spanish readers and Spanish text. Just like The Lexile® Framework for Reading, it’s a powerful tool for measuring Spanish students’ reading abilities, personalizing learning and improving achievement.
