What is Accelerated Reading?
Accelerated Reading AR is a computerized program that monitors reading practice. Students select books within their ZPD (an appropriate level), read them and take quizzes. ZPD (Zone of Proximal Development) is determined by STAR (Standardized Test for Assessment of Reading). This report is a computerized test. ZPDS can be adjusted based on age, maturity and interest. If you have a question about your childs ZPD, feel free to contact me. After each quiz, a TOPS report is printed. TOPS reports show quiz results as well as cumulative data, such as points, book level average and percent correct average. Visit this website for more information: www.renlearn.
