A.R. Dot Colors and Points

A.R. Points:

Every book that has an A.R. Reading Practice Quiz is given a point value. AR points are computed based on the difficulty of the book and the length of the book (number of words). The majority of the books your child will bring home to read will be 0.5 AR points.

 

During the first nine weeks, we will practice how to prepare and take A.R. quizzes.  Your child will receive a point goal at the beginning of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th nine weeks.  An A.R. celebration will take place at the end of every nine weeks for those who meet their A.R. point goal, and for those who mantain an average of 85% or higher. 

 

Dot Colors/Grade Levels: 

Please be aware of what color dot your child brings home to read. The color dot your child needs will be listed in your child's AR log. You may see the dots change throughout the year. 

Red Dot: 0.1- 0.9
