[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The scores for my kids seemed pretty accurate, and both rose by about the expected amount. Is most of the opposition to iready that people had over-inflated views of their kid's ability?[/quote] No. It's a bad test. It's way too long, it's the same test three times in the year, and it doesn't reveal useful information f'd the vast majority of kids on grade level. I could see an argument for using it for kids needing intervention but even then I think it's iffy. It's a huge, expensive, time-wasting resource suck. [/quote] Assuming you're a teacher, what are you seeing with this test? Do the results seem grossly inaccurate for your students, and if so, how? Are the scores generally too low or too high? Is your school using just the assessment part or also the intervention part? What grade level are you teaching? We have been given so little info about this test and what the results mean. [/quote]
