i-Ready Test Prep for Kids

[Anonymous]

I hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful summer! I’m looking for recommendations on where to find practice worksheets or tests for the i-Ready assessment. I understand that students take this test at the beginning of the school year, and I’d like to help my kids brush up on any content they might have forgotten over the summer.

I've checked the i-Ready website but couldn’t find any practice sheets or detailed information about the subject matter. If anyone has suggestions or resources, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Thank you!

Teacher here. The point of IReady is to see where your kid is. No prepping is needed.

Please don't prepare for Iready

Not the OP but i-Ready is now a part of the LIV application so expect prep for the iReady, just like people prep for the NAAT and CoGAT.

Um, what? No. There is no need to prep your child for iready. That's stupid.

I once found some "Iready prep" questions online and I asked my kids and they said it was nothing like the test.

If your kid is not in 2nd grade and you don't care about AAP, don't prep i-Ready. Let them fail and then help/prep them for Winter and Spring tests.

I thought teachers use iready as one of the ways to identify gaps that need to be taught. If you prep, are they really learning...or just memorizing how to take a test? How does that help anybody?

OP here. We are applying for AAP this fall and I understand that i-Ready scores are now considered as well. Is this the case? Otherwise I wouldn’t care to prep.

There's no way to really prep for it but yes Iready scores are on there but it's given like 4x a year

IReady will not be used for reading in grades 1-3 as we have a new screener as part of the Virginia Literacy Act.

You’re focus should be on the CogAT assuming they already took the NNAT.

Prepping for iready means that your child will not get the supports s/he needs if they are behind on something. I guarantee your child does not belong in AAP if you have to ask this question. You're one of THOSE mommies. The worst kind
