The Quantile® Framework for Mathematics measures mathematicsachievement similar to the way The Lexile Framework for Reading measuresreading ability. Quantile measures describe a student’s ability to solvemathematical problems and the demand of the skills and concepts typicallytaught in kindergarten mathematics through Algebra II, Geometry,Trigonometry and Pre-calculus. They take the guesswork out of instructionby describing which mathematical skills the student has learned and isready to learn. The number of state and commercial assessments linkedwith the Quantile Framework continues to grow.
