i-Ready Math ML Resources

ML Resources in i-Ready Math

i-Ready Classroom Math has several ready-made materials in Spanish that can help Multilingual Learners better access math content.

i-Ready Classroom Math (K-8)

i-Ready Classroom Math for grades K-8 has corresponding Spanish versions for all Classroom Resources in the Teacher Toolbox. To view the Spanish resources simply click on Classroom Resources (Spanish) and the table will change to the Spanish version. The Unit and Lesson order does not change, it stays the same as the English version.

The goal of using the Spanish version of the materials is to SUPPLEMENT, not to replace the English versions. As students acquire more proficiency, the use of Spanish materials can be reduced*

Not all ML students need to use Spanish materials. If you are not sure if a ML student would benefit from using Spanish resources, reach out to a ML teacher for guidance.

Sample Family Letter.pdf

Family Letter

When beginning a new lesson, sending home the Family Letter can help parents know what their child is learning in class and can help them reinforce that learning at home. Parents talking with their students about their learning in their native language can help deepen concept understanding and foster acquistion of the English language associated with the concept.

Interactive Tutorials

The Interactive Tutorials are excellent resources for providing input of concepts in Spanish. The tutorials can be provided to students before instruction to activate prior knowledge and enable them to make connections when receiving instructions. The tutorials can also be provided after whole-group instruction as well to review or help students clarify their understanding.

Assess

Lesson Quizzes and Unit Assessments for all lessons and units have a Spanish version. The Spanish versions are exact translations of the English versions. Use of the Spanish versions are NOT recommended for students in K-3, or students in grades 4-8 who do have literacy skills in Spanish. For Newcomer ML students in grades 4-8 with Spanish literacy skills, the Spanish versions are recommended for use. As students gain English proficiency, it is recommend that Spanish versions be paired with the English versions to support understanding before gradually moving to English only.

Grade 3 Spanish Fluency and Skills Practice.pdf

Fluency and Skills Practice

Newcomer ML students (students at the lower English proficiency levels) benefit from direct instruction and assessment of math concepts (not using word-problems). The Fluency and Skills Practice sheets provide practice opportunities and assessment options that allow students to demonstrate understanding of concepts without using extensive word problems-especially in lower grades. For upper-grade students, the Spanish versions can be used in the same way the translated assessments can be used.
