iReady: Now That You've Completed the Diagnostic, Next Steps
The information below includes some tips for reviewing your i-Ready data, as well as some resources to help you get the most out of Ready.
i-Ready Diagnostic & Instruction
1. Using Diagnostic Data: The following tools and reports will help you pinpoint needs, allocate resources, and create data-driven action plans to achieve academic goals.
· Use the Report Selector Tool to find the right report for the questions you have
· The Diagnostic Results report gives a comprehensive picture of instructional needs based on data from the first Diagnostic. It’s available by class and by student.
· The Instructional Groupings Report groups students with similar instructional needs and, for each group, provides detailed instructional priorities and classroom resources to support differentiated instruction.
· Watch this video to learn how to get the most from your i‑Ready data.
2. Data Chats: Data becomes powerful when teachers and students engage in “data conversations” or “data chats”. For leaders and teachers, these conversations help unpack what the data means and decide what to do about it. For students, these conversations increase student engagement and promote student ownership over their own learning. Click here to access our full Data Chat Pack for after the First Diagnostic or use the links below to go directly to each type of data chat.
· Teachers and Students Discussing Student Data
· Leaders and Teachers Discussing Class-Level Data
3. Checklists: Check out our checklists for key tasks to complete immediately after each Diagnostic.
· Routines Between Diagnostics Checklist for Teachers
Tips and Resources to help you get the most out of Ready
1. Continue to communicate your focus and purpose for implementing Ready Math to your Instructional Leaders and Teachers. Visit Coach’s Corner for some ideas on how to address common questions or concerns.
2. Ensure you are getting the support they need to successfully:
• Engage Students in Mathematics by implementing the Think–Share–Compare Routine
• Use Mathematics Discourse Cards to Enhance Classroom Conversations
• Prepare for Robust Conversations by using the Discourse-Based Lesson Guide
3. Visit other classrooms using Ready Math Look-Fors as a guide and check pacing and adjust if necessary.
