  • Helps you get kids excited about books.
    Accelerated Reader (AR
    ®) helps you focus attention on careful reading of books, which improves students’ critical-thinking skills and builds the intrinsic love of reading.

  • Provides you with reliable, objective information.
    Three different types of assessment give you valuable data on students’ reading practice, literacy skills development, and performance on classroom assignments.

  • Makes managing your classroom easier.
    Teachers who use AR report higher attendance, fewer discipline problems, and improved attitudes toward school.

  • Helps you keep each student challenged.
    Using AR, you can continually match kids to appropriate books within their zone of proximal development (ZPD). That means you can ensure every student is challenged without being frustrated.
