What is AR?
What is AR?
Accelerated Reader (AR) is a program that SH uses in grades 1-5, to help students strengthen their reading skills. Twice a year, the students take a computerized test (Star), that lets the teachers know what level the student is reading on. This level, known as the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), is what the students use to find books in the library on their level. They read these books and take AR tests over them to make sure that they are comprehending what they are reading, and they also earn points on the tests that they take. Teachers set goals for how many points a student should get as well as what their test average should be for each marking period. When the students demonstrate mastery on a level, the teacher can increase their ZPD so that they will have more challenging books to read. The goal of using this program is to motivate students to read and in the process, become stronger readers.
