Accelerated Reading (AR)
Library/Media skills is an ELA subskill on the MTC Diocesan Report Card. The grade earned in Library/Media skills is based on the Accelerated Reading (AR) goal percentage achieved. AR Goals are based on the STAR Reading assessment, average percent correct, and selected minutes of daily reading.
Students should be reading chapter books at their independent reading level and taking AR assessments throughout the trimester. At the end of each trimester, students will receive a grade of 4,3,2 or 1 on their report card for Accelerated Reader based on the percentage of their goal that they achieve.
