ACCELERATED READER (AR):
This is a valuable program where your child reads a book and then answers comprehension questions
about the book on a school computer. Students will take a short assessment during the first week of school and will be assigned a color corresponding to their reading level.  There is time to read in class but they must also put in reading time at home to be successful.  Both my classroom library and the school's media center have AR books on varying levels.  Individual incentives and class prizes are also offered to help motivate students to read.
