Accelerated Reader
Accelerated Reading is a crucial part of our reading curriculum. We believe the more exposure to reading your child receives, the better reader he or she will become. Each child will receive a reading goal every nine weeks. Your child will have a "point goal". Each time your child reads a book, he or she will take the AR test on the computer. All students are expected to maintain an 85% or higher percentage correct on the tests that they take. You will receive weekly reports to keep you informed of your child's progress towards his or her AR goals. Please keep in mind that the “point goal” is based on individual reading levels and not all students’ goals will be the same. New point goals will be assigned at the beginning of each nine weeks. You will be able to access AR from home to view the tests your child has taken each day. Through Renaissance Home Connect, you have the option to receive emails each time your child takes a test. This can be very helpful in tracking your child's reading. Please encourage your child to read each day to reach these goals. It is sometimes necessary for parents to help students pace their reading by having them read a certain amount each day. Your child will receive time for individual reading in class as well.

Dear Parents,
Now it's easier than ever to find the perfect books for your child -- shop our NEW online Book Clubs Web site. Choose from a much-wider selection of books than in the printed flyer. Plus, you can send your orders directly to me online and use your credit card to pay.
Best of all, we earn a FREE book for the classroom library every time a parent places an order online.*
1. SIGN UP at www.scholastic.com/bookclubs. On the parent page, click the "Register" button in the "First Time Here?" section. Register for your own user name and password. When prompted, enter the one-time Class Activation Code shown above. This unique code ensures that your order is sent to me.
2. SELECT the books you'd like to order -- choose from thousands of titles -- many more than in our monthly flyers.
3. SEND your order to me online by the due date and your child's books will be delivered directly to my classroom.
Ordering online is fast, easy, and secure.
Of course, you can still order using the form from the printed flyer. If you choose to send it in the classroom, we may only accept checks made out to SCHOLASTIC. We cannot accept cash, but checks will be fine. If ordering online, you may use a credit or debit card.
Thank you!
