Accelerated Reader Renaissance Place
AR Goal for this year: Reading within Students' reading range
80% or more percentage correct!
Students enjoy the Accelerated Reader program. The AR program is a
web-based computerized reading management program by Advantage Learning Systems, Inc. It is as
easy as 1,2,3!
1. Select a book. Students make their choice from thousands of outstanding titles
available through Renaissance Place. The
students should make sure they choose books within their reading range.
Their reading range is based on the STAR Reading test, given
by their teacher several times each year. Their reading range changes
based on their STAR report. The books range in reading level from first
grade through secondary school.
2. Read the book. Students read their books at their own pace. This
becomes an important element to the student's independent study time. Many students
are involved with good literature. They eagerly discuss books and recommend them to
their friends. Scores are usually better after they discuss their book
with someone.
3. Take the test. Many students find this to be one of the fun parts of
the program. They take a web-based computerized test, featuring 5, 10, or 20 multiple-choice
comprehension questions. The program tells the student how many questions
were correct and awards
reading points. Reading points are based on the book's point value and the number of
correct answers. If the student passes the test, their teacher can rest assured that
the student really has read and understood the book.
Our goal is for students to test
with a minimum of 90% or higher.
