i-Ready Assessment
Tools for Instruction: Teacher-Led Lessons Target Each Skill
Get to Know Tools for Instruction for Grades K–8
The hard work of connecting digital and classroom resources is often left to the teacher. i‑Ready is different because it uses rich assessment data to provide teachers with a complete picture of student performance and ties this data directly to resources that will accelerate growth.
Tools for Instruction are actionable, in-the-moment lesson plans for addressing skills gaps identified by the i‑Ready Diagnostic. These lessons, available at point of use in i‑Ready reports, as well as on the Teacher Toolbox, are perfect for:
- Delivering differentiated small group and one-on-one instruction, informed by data
- Reteaching challenging skills and standards using new strategies and activities
- Flexible usage by a lead teacher, intervention specialist, or classroom aide
