Accelerated Reader replaces Reading Counts

It's a new day for Accelerated Reader.

Accelerated Reader is a software assessment tool that assesses a student's reading level, suggests titles of books at that level, and then assess whether a student has completed reading the book by asking a series of quiz questions. The software provides additional information to students regarding reading rates, amount of reading, and other variables related to reading. Renaissance Learning does not require or advocate the use of incentives with the assessment, although it is a common misperception.

There are three steps to using Accelerated Reader. First, students choose and read a fiction or non-fiction book, textbook, or magazine. Teachers monitor reading including guided, paired, literature-based, and textbook reading. Second, students take a quiz. Teachers can create their own quizzes for those not available in Accelerated Reader. Third, the teacher receives information that is intended to assist, motivate reading, monitor progress, and target instruction. Reports regarding reading level and comprehension skills are available through the software.

With Accelerated Reader, you can:

  • Get students excited about reading and vocabulary.

  • Receive reliable, objective information.

  • Help every student master standards.

  • Improve students' attitudes for learning.
