Accelerated Reader Test Procedures |
|
| Northridge Middle School | ||
For all N.M.S. students who are participating in our Summer Reading Rewards program:
*Only students who will be in grades 6-8 will be able to take AR tests over the summer.
*To access Accelerated Reader (Renaissance Place) to take quizzes, go to the following link:
https://hosted100.renlearn.com/119804/
- You will need to log in as a student with a User Name (first letter of your first name and first four letters of your last name). The password is your birthday (the month, numerically in two digits and the day, numerically in two digits). For example, March 1st would be 0301.
- Next choose "Take a Quiz" and then "Take a Reading Practice Quiz."
- Select a quiz by choosing to enter either the title or author (not both). The program is very precise, so you will need to have the exact title including any apostrophes, etc. or the exact author's name.
- Once you find the correct title, click on it to start the test (it will ask if the book was "Read To You," "Read With You," or "Read Independently"). Choose the appropriate response.
- Confirm that you have picked the correct title, and click "yes."
- You are now ready to take the quiz by clicking the answer you choose.
- When finished, it will give you a choice to see correct answers for those you may have missed.
- If you have any problems logging in, please e-mail Mrs. Luken and she will be able to help you.
If your computer reports it does not have the proper software to run the AR program, please do the following:
At the login page noted above, in the bottom left corner of the screen, click on "check software requirements". This will test whether your computer has the proper software to take tests. You will need Quicktime and Flash Player. These are common, free plugins that many computers already have installed. A report will come up and tell you if you need to install either of these, along with a download address to get them if you need them.
