Every week when the student's come to the Library, they have a choice of picking an Accelerated Reader book to check out. A Star on the book indicates that it is an Accelerated Reader. If they choose one of these books to read, after they have finished reading it they can take a test on it. These tests are taken on their computers in their classrooms. If they pass the test, they will receive points.
Points vary depending on what book they read.
These points are totaled and kept in the computer for future test taking. They may not take the test over if they did not pass unless the teacher requests that they do so. The Accelerated Reader Store is in the Periodical room of the Library. The students can spend their points or save them. If they spend points then it is subtracted from their total on the computer.
