Purpose: i-Ready is an adaptive reading & mathematics software built for the Georgia Standards of Excellence.
- i-Ready Reading assesses students’ mastery of phonics, vocabulary, comprehension, and text analysis standards and provides students with a personalized learning progression based on this assessment.
- i-Ready Math addresses the emphasis on conceptual understanding through reasoning, modeling, and discussion that explores the structure of mathematics while also developing students' procedural fluency. Students engage in instructional lessons that include videos, interactive activities, and guided practice aligned to reading and math skills they have not yet mastered.
- During the summer, we recommend students complete two to three sessions a week in both reading and mathematics as a supplemental resource to review and practice vocabulary, comprehension, text analysis, computational fluency, problem-solving, and mathematical reasoning.
