Research on reading
‘What Kids Are Reading’ is an annual report from Prof. Keith Topping, published by Renaissance, on the book-reading habits of primary and secondary-aged children across the UK and Ireland.
The report reveals both the most read and most popular titles of the last school year, and features contributions from schools, authors and other literacy experts.
The original and best way to accelerate reading
The ‘mini’ quizzes on Take the Quiz are based on those available to schools using Renaissance Accelerated Reader (AR), which features a growing bank of over 40,000 comprehension quizzes on a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction books.
For over 40 years, AR has been motivating students of all ages and abilities to read for pleasure and information to become confident, successful readers. It also forms just one element of a complete literacy solution from Renaissance that includes enhanced online reading with myON and myON News, and accurate assessment from Star Reading and NGRT.
