How can parents help

In addition to the extensive collection in our library, teachers also have collections of AR books in their rooms. However, many students choose to visit the public libraries for additional resources.

Many parents want to know how they can assist with the Accelerated Reader program.

  • Find Out the Reading Zone. The classroom teacher can give you the reading zone for your child's independent reading. If you know the zone (example: Reading Level 1.5-2.5), you can help him/her choose books.
  • Check through your children's books at home. www.arbookfind.com
  • Read Aloud Together. This is one of the most important elements. Have your child read to you and you can read to him/her. Ask questions about the story. This will help with comprehension.
