What are the SRI tests and the Lexile Framework®?
Scholastic Reading Inventory (SRI) is a reading assessment test for Grades 1–12. SRI determines the students’ reading level and places them in the appropriate level of the program. SRI also monitors student, group and class progress over time. SRI uses the Lexile Framework for Reading®, a measure that matches students to text. The Lexile Framework places both reader and text on the same absolute scale, thereby providing a more accurate match between the two. This unique feature allows educators to more accurately match students to appropriately leveled text.
