Accelerated Reader

 

Accelerated Reader is a computer programme that helps teachers manage, monitor and improve children's independent reading practice.  

Your child chooses a book (with support) based on their interests and at his/her own level (this is a very important part of the programme) and reads at his/her own pace. When finished, your child takes a short quiz online - passing the quiz is an indication that your child has understood what has been read. Accelerated Reader gives both children and teachers feedback based on the quiz results, which the teacher then uses to help the child set targets and direct ongoing reading practice.  

We are so proud of all our children's achievements in Accelerated Reader - well done everyone!

Quizzes are available to take at home on weekdays during the hours of 8am and 8pm.
