Hi there,

I don't know where to find accelerated reading lists out there (besides obtaining one from your child's teacher or searching for one online), but if you have an accelerated 5th grader, maybe try reading lists made for older students? Like a Middle School reading list? This way they're reading above their level.

Accelerated Reader? ok

Most schools in our area have lists of Accelerated Reader (AR) titles that they have purchased. My son's school recently purchased the AR Enterprise program, which includes all of the AR tests available. I would suggest checking with your school's librarian for a current list. And you can always check the Renaissance Place website to see what tests are available.

Check with your school's website, mine provides a list for each grade level which is helpful.  Also, our local library keeps a list on file.  If you are involved with Scholastic, they also place a reading level for each book in the description in their catalogs. For fifth grade it will appear as AR:5.0, AR:5.1 and so on through AR:6.0.

Check out the links below for more assistance in choosing books on your child's grade level + there is lots of fun stuff available there to.

The last list is an actual 5th grade reading list.  Hope this helps!


Enjoy learning!

AR BookFinder is a great website that includes information on all books with AR quizzes.  It allows you to enter specific criteria based on your child's interests and reading level.
