What is i-Ready?

"i-Ready is an online program for reading and mathematics that will help your student’s teacher determine your student’s needs, personalize their learning, and monitor progress throughout the school year. i-Ready allows your teacher to meet your student exactly where they are and provides data to increase your student’s learning gains. i-Ready consists of two parts: Diagnostic and Personalized Instruction."   (Curriculum Associates, LLC)

The i-Ready Diagnostic is an Adaptive Test


This means the questions change based on the student's answer.

"Why are the questions so DIFFICULT for my _______ grader?"

“The diagnostic test gives students all different types of problems because it’s looking for the ones that are JUST RIGHT for THEIR i-Ready lessons.”

At-Home

“If parents want to give their children a gift, the best thing they can do is to teach their children to love challenges, be intrigued by mistakes, enjoy effort, and keep on learning. That way, their children don’t have to be slaves of praise. They will have a lifelong way to build and repair their own confidence.”

― Carol S. Dweck

"What do I say to my child who just doesn't seem to be getting the concept?"

Words Matter...The Power of Yet


“Not yet” suggests that you can and will get there, at some point. You’re just not there right now.
