Accelerated Reader
What is Accelerated Reader?
Accelerated Reader is a computerized reading program used in grades K through 5. A student checks out a book on her reading level from the library and reads the book, either independently or with help. Next, the child takes a 5-10 question quiz over the book either in her classroom, the computer lab or the library. The child is awarded points for passing the quiz.
It is very important that students read books on the appropriate reading level. Students will be taking the Star Reading test in early September, which will identify these levels. Please make sure to look over this report when you receive it and make sure your child's library book is appropriate. Reading levels are labeled on the inside of the front cover of each book. Your child must maintain a passing grade of 70% to be eligible for the incentives. Thanks for your help.
