Achieve 3000
 The core of Achieve 3000
is composed of Associated
Press (AP) news articles
leveled for differentiated
reading levels.
 Thus you are reading
current events at your
level.
Load Up on Good Ideas
 Take the time to learn
new strategies and
apply them to
interesting current
events.
 Load ‘em up and
move ‘em out!
Achieve 3000
 Within the Achieve 3000
Program, you are emailed
a new article five days a
week.
 You are asked a short
introductory question and
send an email response
back to the Program with
your answer.
After Your Email
 After you send the email,
you read the story!
 Not just once, but twice!
Just like practicing the
piano.
 Then you can move onto
the Thought Questions.
Slow and Steady
 Read the question.
 Think about the story.
Maybe there was a place
that talked about the
answer.
 Maybe there wasn’t such a
place.
 Maybe you had to think
about the big picture and
read between the lines.
Best Answer
 There will be lots of
good choices.
 But you have to
choose the BEST
ANSWER.
Take the Poll
 After you complete
your questions, answer
the Poll.
 You can do Achieve
3000 wherever you
have Internet access!
