12-18-2023 Support Student Career Choice with Free Access to MetaMetrics Lexile and Quantile Career Database

The Wyoming Department of Education, in partnership with MetaMetrics, provides free resources to Wyoming teachers, parents, and students to help engage students in learning that will support their career path. Lexile and Quantile measures are reported on the WY-TOPP Individual Student Reports (ISRs) that schools send to parents or guardians. Gain free, premium access to the Lexile & Quantile Hub.

As students explore possible career choices, sometimes as early as middle school, Lexile and Quantile measures can help them understand the difficulty of reading materials and math tasks they will likely encounter when they enter a field. These resources can help motivate students and structure their path forward. More information about the Lexile and Quantile Career Database is available here

Other recent additions to the Hub include the Lexile Find a Decodable Book tool and Lexile Decodable Passages, which are specially designed reading materials intended to help early learners develop their phonics skills and become proficient readers.

Several short, asynchronous training videos on how to access and use the Hub’s tools are available here
