ACCELERATED READER PROGRAM
The Accelerated Reader
Program (AR) is a reading management program utilizing computer technology.
This program provides teachers with an easy and effective way to monitor all
forms of guided reading practice. Accelerated Reader helps students focus
attention on the careful reading of books, which improves students’
critical-thinking skills and builds an intrinsic love of reading. Using AR,
teachers can continuously guide students to appropriate books and curriculum
within their “zone of proximal development” (ZPD), i.e.: comfortable reading
level. This means that students are challenged to develop their reading skills
without being frustrated.
