Jacket Notes:
Accelerated Reader is a program based on the fact that students become more motivated to read if they are tested on the content of the books they have read and are rewarded for correct answers. Students read each book, individually take the test on the computer, and receive gratification when they score well. Schools using the Accelerated Reader program have seen a significant increase in reading among their students.
This collection of high/low titles was created to increase the awareness and prevention of two phenomena that have become endemic among the teenage population: unwanted pregnancies and eating disorders. The test disk will help your students remember the important information imparted here.
