The test result will tell us your child’s reading level and match him/her to the right books that s/he can read with success and enjoyment. He/ She is allowed to take the test only once.
Below are important reminders you can explain to your child before taking the test.
-
Read each passage and question at least twice before choosing an answer.
-
Use context clues to determine the meaning of unfamiliar or difficult words in the passages or sentences. Your child must not ask his/ her teacher/s or classmates the meaning of words while taking the test.
-
The Literacy Pro test is not a speed test. The test will take a minimum of fifteen minutes to an hour depending on how the test is answered.
-
Three skips are allowed. Skipping does not affect the succeeding test questions or the Lexile. Please remind him/ her to use each skip wisely.
-
Your child will begin with a passage that is within the level of her current (previous school year’s) Lexile score. For Grade 1 and new students, your child will begin with a passage within his/her current grade level’s Lexile.
To ensure that the test goes well, please practice the login process with your child before the testing date. Please have him/her remember or take note of his/her username and password.
After the test, you may check your child’s Literacy Pro Lexile Test result in the Family Zone. An explicit guide on how to access your child’s Parent Zone is provided on the next page. You may refer to the steps provided.
Your involvement is critical to your child’s success.
