i-Ready Diagnostic Assessment
To support continuous learning and instructional decision making, the Solana Beach School District will utilize the i-Ready Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) diagnostic assessments as one of many measures to monitor student progress and support instructional decision-making. This year we will not be administering the MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) test. i-Ready Assessments will be administered to all students districtwide 2-3 times a year, and additional classroom and district assessments will be ongoing as needed to monitor and support student progress. The California Department of Education (CDE) has identified i-Ready as an approved diagnostic assessment tool. The computer-based assessments include diagnostic and standards mastery assessments, dyslexia screening, and oral reading fluency assessments that can be used coherently to monitor and support student progress. The i-Ready Diagnostic is an adaptive assessment that adjusts its questions to suit your student’s needs. Each item that a student sees is individualized based on their answer to the previous question.
i-Ready Personalized Instruction provides students with lessons based on their individual skill level and needs so your student can learn at a pace that is just right for them. Please note this is only one of many resources to support targeted skill development for your child. This does not replace the instruction of the classroom teacher.
