Pizza Hut's Book It! Program

READING GOAL: I will read at least 20 minutes everyday at home. Accelerated Reader (AR)
AR is a computer program that helps teachers and librarians manage and monitor children’s independent reading practice.
Your child picks a book at his own level and reads it at his own pace. When finished, your child takes a short quiz on the computer. (Passing the quiz is an indication that your child understood what was read.) AR gives children, teachers, and librarians feedback based on the quiz results, which the teacher or librarian then uses to help your child set goals and direct ongoing reading practice. Teachers and librarians help your child choose books at an appropriate readability level that are challenging without being frustrating, ensuring that your child can pass the quiz and experience success. |
