Accelerated Reader Program

The Accelerated Reader, or AR, is a learning information system that enables freestanding computer-assisted assessment of student comprehension of “real” books.

 

What is the Accelerated Reader Program?
The Accelerated Reader is a curriculum-based assessment tool that provides a summary and analysis of results to enable teachers to monitor both the quantity and quality of reading practice engaged in by their students. Students administer comprehension tests voluntarily themselves, and the system is intended specifically to have strong formative effects on subsequent learning.

After reading, the student goes to the computer and takes a multiple-choice comprehension test on the book's content. Tests may have 5, 10, or 20 items, depending on the length and difficulty of the book. The computer scores the test, awards the student points based on the results, and keeps a complete record.

How to I find books in the Accelerated Reader Program?
Tritt Elementary has partnered with QuizList Interactive to provide a searchable database of the Accelerated Reader quizzes available to Tritt students.  We have also added the feature to see if the AR books are part of the Media Center collection.

The reading list is provided by Cobb County School District.  There may be books on the Summer Reading List for which we do not have AR quizzes.  Please check the online database.
