Lexile® Framework | Master Framework & Domains

ABOUT

Lexile® measures are the gold standard for measuring reading development and comprehension. Over 35 million students and 100 million books, articles and websites have received Lexile reading and text measures. The Lexile scale can be used to measure not only reading comprehension and pre-reading skills, but to take a more complete approach to literacy with a framework for oral reading as well. Similar to the reading framework, MetaMetrics® developed the oral reading framework to measure both student ability and the complexity of content they encounter on the same Lexile scale.

TRADEMARK USAGE

The Lexile® Framework for Reading and the Lexile®  Framework for Oral Reading are the foundation of all Lexile products and services. The complete name, “Lexile® Framework for Reading” and “Lexile® Framework for Oral Reading,” must be used on the first reference, and include the trademark registration symbol “®” following the word “Lexile”. Bold and italics formatting to set apart the name and distinguish the trademark from surrounding text is preferred. Subsequent references can be abbreviated to “Lexile® Framework,” “reading framework” or “oral reading framework.” If using the “Lexile® Framework” term, the first reference should include the trademark registration symbol.  Subsequent references may also include the registration symbol.

The name “Lexile®” must use a capital “L” and include a “®” on the first reference. “Lexile measure” always uses a lowercase “m.” “Lexile” must always modify another term (for example, “Lexile measure” or “Lexile score”). “Lexile” should never be used as a stand-alone term (for example, “My Lexile is…”), but rather as a proper adjective (“My Lexile reading measure is…”). Variations of “Lexile” should never be used (for example, “Lexiles,” “Lexiled” or “Lexiling”).

LEXILE® MEASURES

A “Lexile® measure” is represented by a number followed by an “L” (for example, 850L). If a text has been assigned a Lexile® code, the two-letter acronym must precede the number and “L” (for example, AD460L).

Reading FrameworkLexile® reading measure is a measure of a student’s reading ability. A Lexile text measure is a measure of the text complexity for a book or piece of text. A Lexile® text measure only offers information about text complexity, not the reading ability of a student. To determine student reading ability, a Lexile-linked assessment must be administered. Lexile text measures may not be used to determine the reading abilities of students.

Oral Reading FrameworkLexile® oral reading measure is a measure of a student’s oral reading ability. A Lexile® oral readability measure is a measure of how difficult a piece of text is to read aloud.

WEBSITE

The Lexile® & Quantile® Hub website must be written as “Hub.Lexile.com” (with a capital H and L) unless it is part of a compound URL (for example, hub.lexile.com/lexile-growth-planner).

LEXILE® TRADEMARK & COPYRIGHT OWNERSHIP

Anyone using the Lexile® name, logo or corresponding descriptions and/or proprietary framework, and products based on such framework, which include the scales and the measures, has an obligation to correctly identify MetaMetrics’ exclusive ownership of them by including the trademark and copyright attributions set out below at least once on all materials displaying and/or incorporating them. The trademark and copyright attributions must appear in a prominent manner and location so as to give reasonable notice of MetaMetrics’ proprietary rights. The trademark attribution must be used anytime a MetaMetrics trademark appears in writing. The copyright attribution must be used whenever written materials belonging to MetaMetrics and/or displaying and/or incorporating MetaMetrics’ logo designs and/or proprietary framework and/or products based thereon, are used with permission.

Lexile® Trademark and Copyright Attribution

You must include the following attribution when you use, display and/or incorporate the Lexile® trademark, logo and/or tagline and/or proprietary framework and/or products based on the framework, including the scales and the measures:

LEXILE®, the LEXILE® logo and POWERV® are trademarks of MetaMetrics, Inc., and are registered in the United States and abroad. Copyright © 2024 MetaMetrics, Inc. All rights reserved.

Lexile® Framework for Reading

MARKETING DESCRIPTION

The Lexile® Framework for Reading evaluates reading ability and text complexity on the same developmental scale. Unlike other measurement systems, the Lexile Framework determines reading ability based on actual assessments, rather than generalized age or grade levels. Recognized as the standard for matching readers with texts, tens of millions of students worldwide receive a Lexile® measure that helps them find targeted readings from the more than 100 million Lexile-measured articles, books and websites. Lexile measures connect learners of all ages with resources at the right level of challenge and can be used to monitor their progress. More information is available at Lexile.com.

TRADEMARK USAGE

The Lexile® Framework for Reading is the foundation of all Lexile products and services, providing the underlying philosophical and scientific structure for everything that uses the Lexile scale and the Lexile measure. The complete name, “Lexile® Framework for Reading,” must be used on the first reference, and include the trademark registration symbol “®” following the word “Lexile.” Bold and italics formatting to set apart the name and distinguish the trademark from surrounding text is preferred. Subsequent references can be abbreviated “Lexile® Framework,” and may use the registration symbol.

The name “Lexile®” must use a capital “L” and include a “®” on the first reference. “Lexile measure” always uses a lowercase “m.” “Lexile” must always modify another term (for example, “Lexile measure” or “Lexile score”). “Lexile” should never be used as a stand-alone term (for example, “My Lexile is…”), but rather as a proper adjective (“My Lexile reading measure is…”). Variations of “Lexile” should never be used (for example, “Lexiles,” “Lexiled” or “Lexiling”).

A Lexile reading measure is a measure of a student’s reading ability. A Lexile text measure is a measure of the text complexity for a book or piece of text. A Lexile text measure only offers information about text complexity, not the reading ability of a student.

LEXILE® MEASURES FOR READING

Lexile® Framework for Oral Reading

MARKETING DESCRIPTION

The Lexile® Framework for Oral Reading measures both the oral reading level of students and oral readability of resources so students’ oral reading ability can be evaluated and monitored. Lexile oral reading test results can be compared with other Lexile testing results such as students’ Lexile reading measures for more diagnostic information about students’ abilities and needed interventions. Because the Lexile® Oral Readability Analyzer provides objective measures on the complexity of oral reading materials, student test results are reliable. Highly sensitive Lexile oral reading tests easily track growth in beginning readers and can be used for frequent progress monitoring.

TRADEMARK USAGE

The complete name, “Lexile® Framework for Oral Reading,” must be used on the first reference. Include a “®” following the word “Lexile.” Bold and italics formatting to set apart the name and distinguish the trademark from surrounding text is preferred. Subsequent references can be abbreviated as “Lexile® Framework” or “oral reading framework” and should also include the “®” notation after “Lexile” .

The name “Lexile®” must use a capital “L” and include a “®” on the first reference. “Lexile measure” always uses a lowercase “m.” “Lexile” must always modify another term (for example, “Lexile measure” or “Lexile score”). “Lexile” should never be used as a stand-alone term (for example, “My Lexile is…”), but rather as a proper adjective (“My Lexile reading measure is…). Variations of “Lexile” should never be used (for example, “Lexiles,” “Lexiled” or “Lexiling”).

LEXILE® MEASURES FOR ORAL READING

Like a Lexile measure for reading, a Lexile oral reading measure is represented by a number followed by an “L” (for example, 850L). To differentiate between the measures, use “Lexile® oral reading measure” for students or “Lexile® oral readability measures” for read aloud content.

Common Mistakes

It is essential that the MetaMetrics®, Lexile® and Quantile® and all other trademarks and logos be displayed correctly and consistently. Misuses of MetaMetrics’ trademarks and logos, however small or apparently insignificant, will erode, dilute or tarnish the strength and integrity of these and impair MetaMetrics’ trademark rights. Some common mistakes relating to the use of MetaMetrics’ logos are shown below.

DISTORTION


DON’T distort the shape or form of the logo. Always use digital master artwork provided by MetaMetrics to ensure the logo is represented correctly.

CLEAR ZONE


DON’T forget about the logo clear zone. Always position the logo away from the edge of the page and other text and graphic elements.

COLOR


DON’T change the color of the logo to match a particular color scheme. Always use digital master artwork provided by MetaMetrics to ensure the logo is represented correctly—in its original color, all black or reversed (white on a dark background).

ADDED GRAPHICS


DON’T place other graphics around the logo. These could be interpreted as part of the logo and threaten its trademark status. Make sure the logo clear zone rules are followed.

ROTATION


DON’T rotate the logo. The words should always be perfectly horizontal with the reading plane. Always use digital master artwork provided by MetaMetrics to ensure the logo is represented correctly.

LOGO AS TEXT


DON’T use the logo in any part of a sentence as text. The logo should always be a distinct image set apart from text and never used as a bullet or in place of text.
