Instructional Decisions with iReady

Iready is an adaptive software program that supports student success

with the Ready Math & Reading curriculum. This session will focus on locating and

interpreting multiple reports as a result of the required diagnostic screening.

Learn how to group students by need, communicate results with parents, and

more.

After students have taken an assessment this is where you look to see the results.

Here you will see the grouping of your students based on the assessment results.

You can click on each group to find out more information such as:

Instructional Priorities

Recommendations for Teacher-Led Instruction

Resources (these are hyperlinked).

Once you have pulled up the instructional grouping report you can click on each child's name in that group. Once you click on the child you can view their growth report. This will show typical growth vs. stretch growth.

Monitoring i-Ready Online Instruction is an important step in responding to your students’ needs. Without this step you students will not be getting the most out of their iReady experience. It is best practice to set aside planning time once a week to review your students’ Online Instruction data and familiarize yourself with how to monitor Online Instruction.

This is the number that Mrs. Nichols is looking at when we run Iready reports. This number needs to be at 45 minutes for each student. Click "Monitor Online Instruction" to see each students online overview. You want to pay close attention to yellow caution and red Xs.

Click on the child's name that has the caution sign or red x to see what issues they are having so that you can remediate BEFORE turning on their domains.

Make note of what domain they have failed and what grade level that skill falls under. This is important when locating materials within iReady to help remediate this skill.

Click on assess and teach at the top of your iReady screen.

Next you will select "Tools for Instruction"

Now you choose the grade and subject you are looking for. Remember it might not be the current grade they are in if they failed a domain. Then you click on the blue link to open those materials.

Click on help at the top....I know..I know...you hate clicking that...trust me on this one!

Then click Explore Iready central.

Look on the left for this button

Here you will find a "Pinterest" type of place for all things iReady and ideas for incentives, competition and much much more.
