What is Accelerated Reader?
A computerized reading management program that motivates students to read while increasing student reading ability. 

How does it work?
1. Select a book. 
2. Read the book.
3. Take a test on the computer.  Tests are multiple choice.  The computer shows the student how many questions they answered correctly. 

How do I choose a book?
Pick a book that is interesting to you, is at an appropriate reading level, and can be read in a couple of weeks.

How many times can I take the test on one book?
You can take the test only once! Most tests are 10 multiple choice questions. If you read a classic, the quiz is usually 20 questions. Once you choose an answer to a question and click on "OK," you can't change your answer. Also, you can't skip a question and answer it later, you must answer the questions in order.

 Kids get excited about books.
Accelerated Reader helps you focus attention on careful reading of books,
