[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t put a lot of stock in iReady. It measures how well a kid tests (which is a skill in and of itself, but it is not the most important thing about academic ability.) I have identical twins. One reads at least a level above the other (it is very obvious when you read with each every night - in fluency, comprehension, expression, etc.) but also has anxiety and fidgets a lot - suspected ADHD - so tested 10 percentiles lower. But I similarly don’t put much stock in the report cards, because they are biased by teacher. The COGAT is really the only objective measure (or even better, a WISC.)[/quote] I don’t put “stock” in iready but because it is a screener, not an ability test. I am not sure it measures how well ankid tests but that it is designed to identify areas for support. It is not designed to find strengths or a ceiling or that sort of thing. It is not good at measuring the top of the scale.[/quote]
