Accelerated Reader Program
We all know how reading is important, and how hard it can be for some deaf kids to catch up and improve their reading skills.
One very important resource people may not be aware of is that the Accelerated Reader (AR) program offers tests that can be taken from any computer. So your kid can take the tests right at home.
This is a great tool to promote individual learning. Kids and parents can evaluate immediately how much was understood, as the computer test gives a score based on questions based on the book. The feedback is important to give kids an incentive to pay attention and try to raise their scores.
