Accelerated Reader

 The Great Genre Challenge 

Accelerated Reader

This year students in Kindergarten through Fifth Grade will be trekking out on a new adventure with Accelerated Reader.  After students traverse the pages of books and explore adventures unknown, they will test their knowledge, utilizing Renaissance’s Accelerated Reader Program.


Who - Students in grades Kindergarten through 5th Grade

What - New and improved Rewards 


       When -   Starts September 7th! Each challenge lasts a full grading period and a new challenge

                 begins each 9 weeks.


Why -    To develop and establish lifelong readers and to encourage our students to explore   

                different genres of books.


How - After reading, students test on the books they have read. Each book helps them to work towards completing their challenge. Students will then be compensated with rewards for their achievements.


 9 Week Rewards


Students will be rewarded at the end of each grading period if they meet their goals for AR and The Great Genre Challenge. 



The Great Genre Challenge and BookToks

Are you up to the Challenge? Students from all grades, we are challenging you to READ! 


Elementary students (K-5) will participate in:

 this can be easily completed in tandem with Accelerated Reader.  If you are doing one, why not get credit for both?!?! Readers will be given a short checklist of specific book genres that must be fulfilled each 9 weeks. After completing each part of their challenge and proving their book savvy, students will be compensated with rewards like Fayetteville has never seen before. (This 9 weeks' challenge is at the bottom of this page.)

Be on the lookout or find Ms. Kornegay for more information and to see if you are up to the Challenge!
