IREAD-3 State Assessment

IREAD-3 is an online, untimed, multiple-choice only assessment for second and third graders consisting of three separate test segments. The first segment measures foundational reading skills, including phonics and vocabulary. The remaining two segments assess students’ ability to silently read and comprehend nonfiction and literary texts. Indiana educator committees collaborated with content experts to create the IREAD-3 Test Blueprint and Item Specifications and ensure all test items align to Indiana Academic Standards. The Test Delivery System (TDS) will automatically generate unique forms for each student with different items measuring the same level or rigor.

Above you will see the word untimed, bolded and underlined. The IREAD-3 has always been a timed test until this school year. We are very excited about this change as it gives students the opportunity to take the assessment without the fear of incompletion. For second graders who pass the test, they will not have to take the test again in third grade.
