Help Middle Schoolers Do Their Best with i-Ready

Middle school is a time of momentous change. It’s when students start switching classrooms, confronting new social dynamics, and navigating multiple teachers’ expectations. It’s also when they’re ready to take ownership of their learning, which is where i-Ready, a comprehensive program that connects assessment data with online instruction, comes in. With i-Ready, middle school educators can:

  • Share students' data with them so they can create meaningful learning goals and take ownership of their progress
  • Seamlessly connect assessment data with online instruction
  • Implement personalized learning paths that reflect each student’s unique strengths and areas of growth
  • Keep students focused with online lessons designed specifically to engage and motivate middle schoolers
