Question
How do I search for content by Lexile or grade level?
Answer
A Lexile score indicates the level of difficulty of reading materials and allows Georgia educators to match resources with a student’s reading level. Several GALILEO databases for K-12 include a Lexile score with the article or book information and also let you limit your search to a Lexile range.
The GALILEO bento and classic search provide a Lexile facet (when available) on the search results page:
