Accelerated Reader
(available at home only if schools are closed)
Accelerated Reader quizzes allow a student to show understanding of a book he or she has read. Parents and students are encouraged to follow these best practices when a student reads and takes an Accelerated Reader quiz:
- Select a book of interest to read.
- Read a few pages to be sure you can successfully read the book.
- Finish reading the entire book.
- Take the Accelerated Reader quiz within one day of finishing a book.
- Login to Accelerated Reader. The username is the student ID number without the first zero. Each student should know his or her password. (If students are unsure of their password, they contact Mrs. Lindsey via Email)
- Do not use the book during the quiz.
