Get Good Data
I need to make sure that the data being
collected is quality. I’m relying on it
for so much, so I want it to be as clean
and accurate as possible. The most
important thing I can do is be engaging
and interactive during the testing
process.
—Elementary School Teacher
Reliable data can empower your teaching to boost student achievement. When your
students Diagnostic data is accurate, their growth measures and personalized lesson path
will be “just right for them. Good data helps you make the best use of your planning time
AND each student’s instructional time, with results and recommendations that tell you
student strengths and target the skills students need to work on most. Take these steps
before, during, and after the Diagnostic to gather good data.
To get good data:
Get Organized: Review Diagnostic schedules, gather materials, and organize
testing space.
Prepare and Motivate Students: Get your students ready for the
Diagnostic by motivating them, reviewing expectations, and setting goals.
Actively Proctor: Provide encouragement and watch for students who
may be rushing by reviewing student progress and monitoring alerts.
Track Completion: Ensure all students
complete the Diagnostic within the scheduled
window and before their individual tests expire.

Guiding Questions: Tips:
E xplain i-Ready growth measures to students.
E.g.,“We know what you already know and what you
still need to learn. i-Ready gives you two personal
measures we will use to set goals. You have a Typical
Growth measure, which is how much a student like
you is expected to grow in one year, and a Stretch
Growth measure, which is a more challenging goal.”
Keep the conversation grounded in data, but
provide context. E.g.,“We are looking at your data
so we can help you learn.”
E ncourage students to take ownership over
their goals and next steps by setting a positive
tone, pausing to let them reflect, and helping them
brainstorm ideas.
Focus on each student ’s individual performance
and goals. Avoid making comparisons to peers.
Ensure stu dent goals are not limited to scale
scores and growth measures. Consider including
learning goals that focus on specific domains,
standards, and/or skills.
Su ggest a broad range of actions to students
that include effective habits (e.g., staying focused,
showing work, keeping eyes on their own screen).
Download i-Ready Pledge Sheets by visiting
i-Ready Central® and searching pledge to capture
goals and next steps to display in the classroom.
Use t he conversation to motivate the student to
learn and develop self-assessment skills.

Part 3
Before the 1st Diagnostic
Observe and Reflect
1A. If you used i-Ready last year: How did you do on your
i-Ready Diagnostics last year? What did you learn and
improve on last year and what do you still need to learn
and improve on this year?
—OR—
1B. If you did NOT use i-Ready last year: How did you end
the year? What did you learn and improve on last year and
what do you still need to learn and improve on this year?
Explain How i-Ready Work s
to Motivate Students
2. Now is the perfect oppor tunity to explain i-Ready growth
measures to students. Ensure students understand there
are two growth measures (see the first Tip on the right).
If using Personalized Instruction, explain that Diagnostic
results will determine which lessons the students get.
Take Action
3. How will you do your best on the i-Ready D iagnostic?
What to Do:
If you used i-Ready last year, plan in advance by reviewing student data.
Encourage students to use the Data Chat Worksheets on the next pages.
Have their report on hand for reference.
Plan in advance by reviewing student data using the
Planning for a Student Data Chat Worksheet.*
Consider the individual student while sharing data by adjusting the
conversation and worksheet to the student’s needs and personality.
Approach the conversation as a partnership with the student.

Actions Tips
Before the Diagnostic
Remind students of the
importance of putting
forth their best effort.
Download, preview, and show students resources to prepare them. Consider using:
Getting Students Ready for the Diagnostic Presentation
Diagnostic Intro Videos
Consider also reminding students:
Every test is unique.
Take your time and do not rush.
Results will be used to help students know what they’ve mastered and what they need to learn.
Diagnostic breaks will appear at different times for each student.
Distribute materials,
including headphones,
paper, and pencils.
Consider using
Math Work Pages
Explain what students
should do when they
finish the Diagnostic.
Consider having students:
Read silently
Work on Personalized Instruction
During the Diagnostic
Monitor students as
they are testing.
• Walk around the room by following a pathway as students are testing, ensuring you
walk behind every student’s desk.
Glance at students’ computer screens and Diagnostic progress bars to ensure students are
staying on track by observing for rushing, fast clicking, any open tabs or other websites, etc.
Ensure students are showing work on paper.
Encourage students. • If students are rushing, remind them to take their time and try their best.
If students seem stuck or are taking a long time for each item, encourage them to make
their best guess.
Consider allowing students who seem frustrated or are rushing to take a short break.
Reset the Diagnostic for
individual students as
needed.
If a student appears to be rushing or not trying their best, you can reset the Diagnostic
while it is still “In Progress.” Note that completed tests cannot be reset or removed.
Check with a school leader about policies regarding resetting Diagnostics.
After the Diagnostic
Collect paper and pencils
and ensure students are
logged out of i-Ready.
Congratulate students
for trying their best and
celebrate successes.
Celebrate no rushing.
Celebrate students showing work.

Subtract Multi-Digit Numbers
Objective Use place-value concepts and the standard algorithm
to subtract multi-digit numbers.
This activity builds on a conceptual understanding of place value and using the algorithm to subtract numbers
through 1,000. Students work with large numbers, rst estimating and then nding the dierences by using
knowledge of place value and the standard algorithm. Using place-value concepts (expanded form) to subtract
numbers helps students develop a concrete understanding of regrouping. As they move to the standard
algorithm, regrouping becomes somewhat of a shorthand version of what they did with numbers in expanded
form. This activity especially targets minuends with zeros that require regrouping, because students often nd
this type of problem dicult. Students need to build a solid mastery of the standard algorithm for subtraction
with integers of any size in order to be able to understand how to apply the process to subtract decimals.
Step by Step 20–30 minutes
1 Provide a multi-digit subtraction problem.
Write “4,036 2 1,329” on the board in vertical format.
• Ask the student to estimate the dierence to the nearest thousand. Guide the student to an estimate of
4000 2 1000 5 3000.
Support English Learners The word dierence is a form of the word dierent. Help students to see that
subtraction is a way of determining how numbers are dierent.
2 Use place-value concepts to subtract.
• Have the student write the expanded form of 1,329. Remind the student that each part of the expanded form
represents the value of a digit in the original number. (1,000 1 300 1 20 1 9)
• Demonstrate how to subtract 1,329 from 4,036 one place value at a time. Point out that you are starting with
the digit with the greatest value. Write out the problem on the board. As you complete each step, say:
4,036 minus 1,000 is 3,036.
3,036 minus 300 is 2,736. You may want to think,
“30hundreds minus 3 hundreds is 27 hundreds.
2,736 minus 20 is 2,716.
2,716 minus 9 is 2,707.
4,036
2 1,000
3,036
2 300
2,736
2 20
2,716
2 9
2,707
• Have the student check the answer using partial sums. Point out that since the process is being reversed
(adding instead of subtracting), the student should start adding with the value of the digit in the ones place.
(2,7071 9 is 2,716; 2,716 1 20 5 2,736; 2,736 1 300 is 3,036; 3,036 1 1,000 is 4,036.)

Get Organized
F Set or review your schedule for administering the Diagnostic.
See Diagnostic Scheduling Information table below.
F Review accuracy of class roster(s) and obtain student login information for each class.
*
If you teach reading
and mathematics, confirm accuracy for both subjects. Contact your administrator if you notice discrepancies.
F Test technology students will use to take the Diagnostic: Run the i-Ready Connect system check at
cdn.i-ready.com/systemcheck to confirm computers are functioning properly. Confirm headphones and
audio are working.
F Gather paper and pencils for your students. Students will need scratch paper to solve problems on the
Diagnostic for Mathematics and may find it helpful to take notes during parts of the Diagnostic for Reading.
*Single sign-on users will access i-Ready through their district’s login portal.
** We recommend 12–18 weeks between each Diagnostic administration, including kindergarten.
Administer the Diagnostic as soon as possible for your district/school, based on priorities and needs of your community.
††
For more information, search test duration on i-ReadyCentral.com. Please note that we do not recommend students at any grade level try to complete
the Diagnostic in one session.
Checklist for Administering
the Diagnostic
Diagnostic Scheduling Information**
Recommended testing sessions are based on average total testing time. Consider adding buffer time for transitions,
logging in, viewing tutorial videos, and allowing students who are absent or need more time to complete the
Diagnostic before it expires. Some students may need more or less time, based on a number of factors.
Grade
When to Schedule the
First Diagnostic
Recommended Testing Sessions
