*Introduce AR to the students right away in August.

*Introduce AR to the LCs as soon as first conference.

*Stress the importance of it within the "big picture" of growth for their student.

*Take the Live Class Connects schedule for next year and edit to include a built in slot for AR.

*Use books that you read aloud to your class. Use these to model how to take an AR quiz and create a "habit" of this.

*Share AR goals at conferences.

*Share AR progress as a student/class every two weeks.

*Make SMART goals at conferences.

*Create a "Radical Readers" AR Book Club. Hold a raffle using "punch cards". One hole punch for each book read and AR quiz passed. Each card punched 10 times goes into a basket for a monthly raffle.

Along with everything already mentioned:

-Browse digital libraries as a class to encourage browsing for books! Some students really haven't just browsed "for fun"

-Providing thematic reading suggestions in PP or ELA classes...i.e. Winter Books, Summer Books, Author studies, Informational Reads

-Encouraging Monthly Book Challenges

All of what has been said.

I have a slide for PP that I celebrate everyone who took and passed an AR Quiz.

I share the word count every day.

Include books they can take AR Quizzes on in tiered instruction to motivate the struggling readers.

Choose books with AR quizzes that go along with standards we are focusing on to read in whole group classes.

Encourage early finishers to read in MyOn, Big Universe, Epic!, or their own books instead of leaving class early.

We did a read-a-loud every Thursday in Paw Pride. Then students complete the quiz.

Encourage students to read daily at home, setting aside a specific time dedicated to reading.

Incorporate interactive reading activities such as virtual book clubs, reading challenges, or discussion forums.

Provide timely feedback to students and celebrate their achievements to keep them motivated.

Implement a reward system to recognize and celebrate students’ reading accomplishments.

Offer virtual certificates, badges, or small prizes to motivate students.
