i-Ready

In the next week or two, we will be participating in the i-Ready® Diagnostic. The i-Ready Diagnostic helps teachers to effectively assess their students and then provide instruction based on each student’s unique needs.  i-Ready Diagnostic assesses the following skill areas:

Reading Math

• Phonological Awareness • Number and Operations

• Phonics • Algebra and Algebraic Thinking

• High-Frequency Words • Measurement and Data

• Vocabulary • Geometry

• Comprehension 

i-Ready Diagnostic is an adaptive assessment in reading or math. An

adaptive assessment is a test that automatically adjusts the difficulty of the

questions according to each student’s performance in order to determine

his or her abilities in reading or math.

i-Ready is a very different kind of test that presents students with questions

that can be both too easy and too hard. It is designed to do this until the

assessment finds exactly the level at which the student is performing.

We encourage the students to complete the test to the best of his or her

ability, and know that it is okay to get questions wrong.

Each time a student gets an item incorrect, he or she will be presented with

a simpler question until the diagnostic finds the grade level at which the

student is performing. The assessment efficiently assesses students across

multiple grade levels, allowing for identification of root causes of students’

struggles or for identification of areas where a student is ready for further

challenge.

Once your child completes the test, he or she will be automatically assigned

online instruction to support his or her progress in mastering each skill. 

Some classes work on i-Ready instruction in the classroom and it's available

at home if you have a device too.

REMINDER:

During drop off and pick up, parents are NOT allowed to park in the loop and exit their vehicles.  This holds up the flow of traffic.  

If you need to exit your vehicle for any reason, please park in a parking stall in the parking lot or side street - Thank you!
