Many teachers will be very familiar with the assessment and norms standard called ‘Lexile’ which is used across the US to measure a child’s reading standard and text maturity.

This standard measure is really useful in measuring, assessing and comparing reading standards from one student to another, or across ‘norms’ tables.

Yet, there is no accepted similar metric for writing. We think there should be.

So we’re developing one.

With your help and feedback, together we can make scoring for writing simple, easy and a standard norm to help measure and improve student progress..
