IReady is a screener it will help find students that need extra help that were overlooked before and years later needed much more intervention. It is a good thing. In order to get the information needed, you need to administer it more than once. It also shows growth- so that you can see if a child learned during the time period. One time tests or screeners do not do this.
But, my iReady report just said he was late 6th, not mid-7th or 8th or early 9th. Since it was the end of 6th grade, I was expecting the report to say that he was early 7th (so ready for the next year), but that's not how iReady works. It looks first at the grade your student is currently in, and then makes a judgement from there.
He tested at 90% at the end of kindergarten for iready math, so why is the app set at this level? Can his teacher change it? He’s really bored and keeps fooling around with the screen because the problems are so silly. For his worksheets they are doing much more advanced math which he scores well on. report 09/28/2023 16:37 Subject: Iready level low quote Anonymous
The iReady is not an IQ test, my kid is smart and loves math but he is not a genius or a prodigy or needing to be super accelerated. He enjoys math and asked for enrichment and to do math competitions. So yes, his iReady score is a lot higher then your kids was. He has always scored in the 99th percentile for math. report 08/28/2023 09:49 ...
