Accelerated Reader
is a software program that gets children excited about
reading. Here’s how it works: Children read books out of the library and
then take a comprehension quiz on the computer. Depending how well they
perform on the quiz, they can earn points. There are rewards along the
way as the children continue reading and earning points, but the one
reward they seldom realize is better reading ability! That’s the whole
point behind the AR program. Better reading skills help test scores,
grades in all subjects, and overall success in school. Teachers begin
the year with a several reading tests that help determine each child’s
reading level. This helps students find books that are on a level that
will benefit each child individually. Elgin ISD has used this program
for years and we feel it is a wonderful learning program for our
students.
