Accelerated Reader (AR) is a supplemental reading program
that many schools in the Boise
School District
use to supplement
the district reading program.
The STAR reading test that the students take,
can make a recommendation concerning a reading
level for each student. Based on that
recommendation (and what the teacher knows about the student's
abilities) the teachers encourage their students to choose books that
are
appropriate for them. This helps the
students to find books from the
library, that will help
them to be successful and to improve their reading.
Books that are a part of the AR program have all been
labeled. There are different stickers
for each level which helps guide the students to easily find books in
their
level.
(Not all books are a part of the
AR program.)
The AR program works in the following way:
Students read an AR book, and then they can take
a quiz on that book. This is a great way
to measure if they comprehend what they are reading.
The goal is that they do well on the quiz,
and their reading ability continues to increase which helps them to be
more
successful in their studies in the classroom.
By clicking on the link below, you will be able to access a
list of all books that Whitney Elementary has AR quizzes for. You are able to find books from the list by
the Title, the Author or by the Reading Level. If
you go to the Boise Public Library they also have
a notebook, located
in the children’s room that has the complete list of Whitney’s AR
books.
