      Accelerated Reader (AR) is a computerized incentive reading program to be used independently by students.  It is a simple procedure.  A student reads a book that is on our AR list.  Each book has a designated point value based on its length and difficulty.  After finishing the book, the student then takes a quiz on the book.  This can be done in their classrooms or in the computer lab.  Usually, the quizzes consist of 5 to 15 questions that are based on the content of the book.  A student must achieve 60% or higher on a quiz to receive points.  The program keeps track of a student's accumulated points.  Please remember that AR is not a remedial reading program.  Its purpose is to encourage reading and improve independent reading skills.

     In Kindergarten, I read an Accelerated Reader book to the class, and then have each student individually take the test.  A printout will be sent home saying how your child did on the quiz.  At the end of the year each student may redeem their AR points at the Accelerated Reader store. 

    

 

 

       Our class will be making mini sight word books to practice words at home and to practice our words through-out the school year. This will be a valuable tool to use at home and school for our reading fun. We will be adding to our books biweekly, therefore I would like the books returned every Friday. This will enable us to do in class activities with them and add any additional words if needed for the upcoming week. Thank you for your help in making this a success for your child.
