[quote=Anonymous]I got no information on iReady about my students that I didn't already know. It took a lot of time and blocked up the computer labs for instructional use for a long time. It was stressful for many kids and many kids just put any answer to be done. If there is going to be a screener it needs to be much shorter. If it is a screener it doesn't need to go two grade levels above. Screening means look for problems. If the kid is that high there isn't a problem. If you want to know if a kid is struggling, ask the teacher. The county has many assessment tools. My special ed kids have been thoroughly assessed and have IEP goals, so making them do this was a waste of time. I have documentation of learning. It's not valid when kids are just picking any answer to get done, and test anxiety is a huge issue for kids. [/quote]
