[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What grade? If they're beyond 1500 lexile there may not be a range[/quote]

It certainly continues beyond 1500 since my kid's range is 1670L - 1820L.

I haven't seen an instance where top and bottom of range matched.  I'm sure you could ask your child's teacher what the deal is, especially if they are in elementary school since it can be useful for you in finding good books that are challenging but readable.[/quote]
I doubt kid's teacher (8th grade) will know. I guess I'll have to do a deep dive in the literature. [/quote]

You didn't say what the Lexile score was but it tops out at 2000...so if your 8th grader had a very high MAP score it's possible to have two Lexile numbers that are the same at or near the very upper level.  As others have said it doesn't mean a whole lot. We've used it to search for books online, but it can be difficult to find high-lexile books for a 12-year old that are also age-appropriate :)[/quote]
