My students LOVE the new incentives! I have had LOTS of students mention how \"cool\" the new prizes are!! :)\r\n\r\n Achieve 3,000 is a specific program that pushes students in their reading. The program assesses their reading level and matches articles to the students' abilities. The articles are current and entertaining, and the students can read about their interests. After they finish reading, the program will test them on their comprehension. As they continue doing well on the quizzes, the readability gradually gets harder. To keep the students challenging themselves, I put in place an incentive in place. Prizes are given out whenever each student passes 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, etc. quizzes.
