Accelerated Reader (AR) is the most popular and successful reading product of
all time. AR’s advanced technology helps you:
* Make essential reading practice more effective for every student.
* Personalize reading practice to each student’s current level.
* Manage all reading activities including read to, read with, and
independent reading.
* Assess students’ reading with four types of quizzes: Reading Practice,
Vocabulary Practice, Literacy Skills, and Textbook Quizzes.
* Build a lifelong love of reading and learning.
A large and growing body of independent research shows that educators using
Accelerated Reader and best classroom practices are having a tremendous impact
on K-12 students. Results from 11 urban elementary schools in Memphis, TN,
showed that students using Accelerated Reader (AR) achieved significant gains
and moderate to large effect sizes in grades K–2 and small to moderate effect
sizes in grades 3–6. Students with learning disabilities benefited most in
classrooms with high-implementation of AR.
