Assessments



iReady

As a kindergarten teacher at OLMCA, I used iReady weekly to help assess my students’ progresses in math and reading. Three times a year, I administered the diagnostic assessment, which gave me a basic idea of each student’s knowledge in both subjects.

Weekly, I would monitor their growth on the app/website and apply that knowledge to my lessons. I would also use the data to create interventions, if necessary.

I met with staff to discuss the school’s overall growth and potential areas of improvement.

Finally, I used data results as a way to show parents and other professionals a student’s prgress. This, along with other assessments, helped create a picture a specific student was at academically.
