Accelerated Reader (AR) is a software program used to monitor and
improve independent reading and comprehension of all readers at
St. Gabriel, which includes all students in grades 2 though 8 and
the readers in first grade. Students have access to all of the AR quizzes
in the Accelerated Reader program. After reading an AR book, students take a short quiz on the
computer which immediately tells them how many AR points they have
earned. The number of points awarded are based on the number
of questions answered correctly, the reading level of the book and
the length of the book. The AR reports help the teacher
monitor reading level and comprehension.
