Accelerated Reader Program
Using Accelerated Reader involves three simple steps:

  1. A student selects and reads a book.
  2. The student uses a computer to take a Reading Practice
    Quiz for the book.
  3. The Accelerated Reader software keeps track of the quiz
    results and generates reports for the teacher and the
    student.

Students choose books from the school's Accelerated Reader
book list. This list contains all the books for which the school
has quizzes. Every AR book also has an assigned book level,
interest level, and point value. Book level indicates the
readability of the text, while interest level relates to book
content. Books are assigned one of these interest levels based
on publisher recommendations:

* LG = Lower Grades, approximately K5 – 3
* MG = Middle Grades, approximately 4 – 8
* UG = Upper Grades, approximately 9 – 12

Students earn points based on books' point values and how well
they answer questions on the quiz. As students progress in the
program, they earn reading certification levels set by the school.
