Rewards for Reading
How does it work?
Accelerated Reader (AR) is a computer-based program that students at Stellar Charter School have access to in order to monitor reading practice and progress. Students can take short quizzes after reading a book to check for comprehension
How are AR Goals set?- Grades K-1: AR uses a “point goals” system for students in grades K-1 that will be assigned a goal each semester according to their grade and 15 minutes /day.
- Grades 2-8: AR goals will be generated by the STAR assessment they take at the beginning of the year and at benchmark periods throughout the year.
- Grades 9-12: AR goals will be generated by STAR assessments they take at the beginning of the year and at benchmark periods throughout the year.
How can students earn points? Students earn points when they take a quiz for each book. Passing a quiz requires a score of at least 80%. However, if they score higher than 60 percent on the quiz, they receive a fraction of the total points they could earn from it.
Get recognized for reading! At Stellar, all students who reach their goal each semester will receive special recognition with their name displayed in the breezeway (pictured below). Students in K-8th will pick out a prize from the treasure box and students in 9-12th will be given a $5 gift card to In-N-Out or Dutch Bros.
