1. Adjust management settings in i-Ready (account-level administrators only).

(As needed) Ensure that all students have access to Personalized Instruction and Learning Games (recommended for Grades K–5), and consider postponing or cancelling planned assessments until schools are back in session. Click here for step-by-step directions.

2. Define student learning activities.

• Develop a plan for how students will use i-Ready to learn remotely using a combination of digital and offline resources.
• Document your plan and include suggested timing for each activity. For more detailed guidance and a template to help you plan, click here.
• Extend the learning from online lessons with printable materials that students can work on independently. You can use the Printable At-Home Activity Packs and Additional Resources, available on i-Ready.com/AtHome, to complement students’ work on online lessons.
  • To select which resources to use, you can reference Alignment Documents for Mathematics and Reading, which link the concepts and student materials within the printable resources to the aligned i-Ready online lessons.

3. Prepare students to access i-Ready remotely.

Ensure that students are familiar with logging in to i-Ready, can navigate their student dashboards, and understand what learning activities they will be expected to complete.
