Accelerated Reader

mypic

  • The Accelerated Reader program is a computerized motivational program that assesses reading comprehension.
  • Students select books on their reading level, read independently and take an independent comprehension quiz online.
  • Each book is allocated a certain number of points based on its length and reading level.
  • Students need to answer 60% of questions correctly on each quiz to "pass". 
  • Points are accumulated towards their reading goal, and the program tracks their progress over the course of the school year.
