Remember to use i-Ready at home. If your child is not currently working on the fourth grade level, he or she will have more lessons to master in order to end on level in May. Students should log at least 60 minutes a week on i-Ready. Some students may need longer to complete an entire lesson at a higher level.
Use i-Ready lessons at home to enhance previously taught skills. If your child is NOT currently working on fourth grade level, he or she will have MORE lessons to master in order to finish the year on level in May. (Look for extra vocabulary & phonic lessons.)
