For Parents

 
We will not list AR quizzes on this site anymore since we are using the web-
based version of Accelerated Reader.  It would be impossible and useless to 
list the over 100,000 quizzes on this site because now that our AR is web-
based, your students will have direct access to the list of over 100,000 
quizzes .  So, they may also select books from home or from other libraries 
to use for AR.  But, it is so important that they check with us or check by 
themselves on the AR site to see if AR has a quiz on that particular book.  
They must be careful to check the author to see if he/she is the same as the 
one who wrote their book.  If applicaplicable, they must see if their book 
is abridged or unabridged and if AR has a quiz on the abridged or unabridged 
version.  Checking the publisher is a safe way to match books to quizzes, 
also.  Students must be careful to check the book level to stay within their 
ZPD ranges.  It is always safe to check with their teachers.  We have taught 
the students how to do this.
We have also taught them how to use the AR site to check to see if they have 
already read and tested on a certain book.  In addition, we have taught them 
how to check their AR points to date, for a certain 9 weeks period, or for a 
total of their points since they have been using AR.  So, you can ask them 
for this information if you want to know.
They also know how to check our online card catalog, which is called OPAC, 
to see if we own a certain title and if it is available.
