I remember the Harry Potter books gave you absurd points and I really likes them after I started the series so that year I read them I got to skip class and go watch a movie in the library with exactly one friend of my choosing lol

 

[Chris]

Bc I had gotten so many points

Nah, Well we did do this but the program was called accelerated reader, you took little quizzes over the books you read on the computer and got points depending on how well you did that could be exchanged for mostly dumb but some cool prizes

Isn't that just English class?

 

[Chris]

Lol I wish we did other dumb shit in English class, we were told to read the AR books on our own time

 

[Chris]

But usually it was just what you had to do if you finished your class work or tests early, i never read shit outside of school unless my parents made me go with them on some long drive or something

Grade English teacher had us read Catcher in the Rye and acted like it was all controversial and my entire report was how much of a bitch that kid was lol.....too bad "incel" wasn't a word back then.

AR Points were the bomb

 

[TOP GUY TIME]

You got prizes for reading a lot, my aunt got a computer when she was in schoolfor them

 

[Chris]

See all our prizes mostly sucked was my main complaint lol

 

[Chris]

That was pretty much high school English class for us Deezy, before then though it was all the AR stuff

 

[Chris]

I liked a lot of the books we read in high school tbh, In Cold Blood was one that I don't think was a popular one for most schools that I really liked

 

[Deezy]

AR sounds better than Silent reading, basically teachrs going stfu for 15 minutes

 

[Chris]

Then we had like Of Mice and Men, to kill a Mockingbird too

[Deezy]
