Accelerated+Reader+Program

 Welcome to Jessieville Elementary School! Let me take this opportunity to tell you about the Accelerated Reader Program. This year's program is called Don't Let Reading Scare You Be a Monster Readers". It's all about practice and growth. Accelerated Reader encourages substantial differentiated reading practice to create strong readers. Based on each student's independent reading level, Accelerated Reader helps teachers set personalized goals for each student, and guide students to books difficult enough to keep them challenged, but not so difficult to cause frustration. In addition, Accelerated Reader helps teachers monitor students' vocabulary growth, literacy skills development, and other reading skills. This program involves students 1st through 5th grade. Accelerated Reader books are in the library with colored dots according to that book's grade level. After a student reads the book the student comes to the library to take a comprehension test on their particular book. If they pass the test they are awarded points. Every time they take a test from then on their points accumulate.

 Click on the following link and you can search the website to see what books have tests available and what level they are and how many points they are worth.
