Well, we are not in Oz anymore and have started to rock this website in class. Achieve 3000 is a new program we are using this year to help students become better readers and writers. The website allows students to take a stand on a real life event, read an article, complete comprehension activities, and then see if their views have changed. The site provides each student with articles based on their reading level and progressively gets harder as they work on the site more and more. The initial test will give them a reading level using the lexile system. You can ask your teacher if you'd like to know where you are at to get books at your level in class or at the library. The goal is to have children complete an activity once a week in class on the computer. However, they can work on activities at home and earn points for their avatar. I hope you take advantage of this tool to help you achieve great things this year in third grade!Achieve 3000
