What is A.R.?
Accelerated Reader
Every month the students take a STAR reading test online to assess their reading progress. This test provides students an Accelerated Reading level. An "AR" level helps students choose books at their reading level. When students read at their AR level they can better comprehend text, increase fluency, and reading comprehension abilities.
The STAR reading test generates a reading goal for each individual student. Each student's goal is tailored to their reading ability. The students are challenged to meet their goal each trimester. As long as your child is reads EVERY night (not just Monday- Thursday) they will be able to meet their reading goal for the trimester. To earn points for their reading goal, students are encouraged to take a AR Quiz on each book that they read. Each AR quiz helps students earn points to reach their reading their goal for the trimester. Students will not earn points for quizzes with a score lower than 80%.
Each week our class visits the school library. Students can check out one book at their level every week. Students are also welcome to check out books at the public library. For more information about the Vista Branch Public Library you can go to their website here.
If you are unsure of the AR level of a book at home or at the public library, go to AR BookFind. Here you can type in the name of any book and check the AR level. ( AR level is labeled "BL" on AR Book Find)
***Not all books have an AR level, but most do!
