We have been working with AR for a few months now, and I have noticed some confusion still surrounds it. I will try to make things a bit clearer for everyone.
我们已经与AR合作了几个月，我注意到它仍然有一些困惑。我会尽量让每个人都把事情说得更清楚一些。
AR stands for Accelerated Reader, and it is a reading assessment system. It is a quick way to check the children’s reading comprehension, and fluency. The AR Program is used in conjunction with STAR and MyOn. But these are not the same things.
AR代表Accelerated Reader，它是一种阅读评估系统。这是检查孩子阅读理解和流利程度的快速方法。AR 程序与 STAR 和 MyOn 结合使用。但这些不是一回事。
AR, as mentioned is a Reading comprehension system.
STAR is the online platform that can test the children using a computer instead of the pen and paper like AR used to be. Using STAR, children can read almost any book, then look it up on their website and do an AR Quiz on the computer or iPad.
MyOn is a digital library, like our Raz-Kids. Here the children can read books on their iPads or computers, and then immediately do an AR quiz from the website.
如前所述，AR是一个阅读理解系统。
STAR是一个在线平台，可以使用计算机而不是像AR那样使用笔和纸来测试孩子。使用 STAR，孩子们几乎可以阅读任何书籍，然后在他们的网站上查找并在计算机或 iPad 上进行 AR 测验。
MyOn是一个数字图书馆，就像我们的Raz-Kids一样。在这里，孩子们可以在iPad或电脑上阅读书籍，然后立即从网站上进行AR测验。
The Quizzes can only be completed during school hours, so normally we do these in class time. But on Holidays or other days, the children can still try them before 5:00.
测验只能在上课时间完成，所以通常我们会在课堂上进行。但在节假日或其他日子，孩子们仍然可以在 5：00 之前尝试。
What we are asking for at home, is that the children spend their time reading. Not doing the quizzes, but just reading. Making notes in their Reading Logs, is also beneficial, and can help the children remember books to be quizzed on in school.
我们在家里要求的是，孩子们把时间花在阅读上。不做测验，而只是阅读。在他们的阅读日志中做笔记也是有益的，可以帮助孩子们记住在学校要测验的书籍。
Statistics say that 25 minutes of reading is necessary for a good study habit. More if possible is always good, but less is detrimental to the child’s education.
统计数据表明，25分钟的阅读对于良好的学习习惯是必要的。如果可能的话，多一点总是好的，但少一点对孩子的教育是有害的。
