• i-Ready is a computer generated, adaptive,

individualized, diagnostic assessment which

determines competency on Connecticut Core

math and reading skills.

• The adaptive diagnostic test is used to

determine areas of student strength and need

in key strands or domains.

• Results drive instruction as teachers work

towards satisfying each student’s individual

needs.
