• Accelerated Reader is a popular reading incentive program used in schools. It is intended to encourage kids to read independently at their own level and pace. After students have read their book, they take a short online comprehension quiz. These quizzes may be available in Spanish or read-aloud versions. The program has more than 150,000 titles to choose from. Students begin to accumulate points after taking the quizzes and participate in a schoolwide bulletin board where they are recognized and move to different levels.
