Renaissance Accelerated Reader vs. eSpark

Renaissance Accelerated Reader is an independent reading practice program that helps K–12 students become confident, lifelong readers. Supporting more than 210,000 fiction and nonfiction books at a wide range of levels, Accelerated Reader gives students extensive choice in what they read—and keeps them engaged in independent reading practice as they work toward personalized goals. Quizzes for Spanish titles help meet the needs of emergent bilingual learners, while in-depth reporting supports regular teacher-student conversations about reading time, reading comprehension, and reading growth.
