Note: Although a student may be an excellent reader, it is incorrect to assume that he or she will comprehend text typically found at (and intended for) a higher grade level. A high Lexile measure for a student in one grade indicates that the student can read grade-level-appropriate materials at a very high comprehension rate. The student may not have the background
knowledge or maturity to understand material written for an older audience. It is always necessary to preview materials prior to selecting them for a student. (From: The Lexile Framework, http://lexile.com/about-lexile/grade-equivalent/grade-equivalent-chart.)
