Accelerated Reader
The Accelerated Reader Program is a computer based reading recall and comprehension program. Students read a book and then take a computer test of five or ten questions. The results take into consideration the reading level of the book (as determined by Accelerated Reader) and the number of questions correct. Students can earn prizes each week. Students who reach their reading goals are invted to an end of the grading period celebration. Books in the library have color-coded labels for easy selection of appropriate materials. AR is based on ATOS book levels.
