I hate this app
May 5, 2023

This app sucks. When you get a question right, a goofy character plays a goofy dance. Whoever made that update, frick you. And this doesn't even help me learn ANYTHING about reading. I just do the lessons for the coins so I can play games. The games are the only things that are good about i-ready and carry the whole thing. Remove the characters that pop up when you get a question right first try and make the lessons helpful. Also, turn text unlocking off by default.

Kids hate it and they claim "this makes me want to flip a table" it makes them hate math class and it decreases their motivation to learn please don't use this unless you want your kids to hate math

Iready sucks
May 4, 2023

Iready is the worst thing that my school has ever FORCED me to do! I haven't learned anything so I want CRAP on my computer. I don't know who created Iready but they are BUTTFACE. This IDIOTIC program is probably made in a trash can. You don't do anything but read a passage and answer questions on it so you can officially suuuuuuuuuuuu the people who made it. The diagnostic is so goofy because it is sooooooo hard.

I do not recommend iReady to any school districts. For one, iReady has terrible animations. The "characters" are disgusting. They have no real personality and are not at all helpful for learning. Many students complain of pain while doing their disheartening iReady. PAIN, PEOPLE! Do you think parents would be happy to hear that their children suffer daily pain in their school settings? Do not, I repeat, do NOT send your children to school when there is an iReady diagnostic. They may never return home. *moment of silence for all the lost children due to iReady's cruelty* Instead, send them to Otzi School! At Otzi School, children worship Otzi, the ultimate savior of the human race. If they are good children, they may be able to spend their afterlife in OtziLand! *gasp* Yay! All in all, don't torture children with the disease (aka iReady). Send them to the prestigious Otzi School!

BAN IREADY
May 3, 2023

I ready is a bad website. It doesn't teach me anything. Like its an excuse for teachers to not do their jobs.
It makes me cry and have bad thoughts. I wish for i ready to be ban forever because is a di hearting app that shouldn't be given to young children. Iready makes kids feel bad about their intelligence. There should be no reason for it be causing this much stress to well educated students. #BANIREADY2023

Dont use i-ready
May 2, 2023

I-Ready is a website made by incompetent people who are too lazy to teach their students/kids.
1. It doesn't help you learn:
You would think a learning website made to teach kids would make the kids learn right...RIGHT!? Well, it does the exact opposite of teaching your kids at the end of a lesson. It makes them even more confused than before.
2. It's a kid's nightmare:
As a teen, I hated when we were forced to do I-ready testing or we would have an assignment. I banged my head on the table when we would have an i-ready assignment because they arnt help and are boring.
3. The test oh test:
These tests were god long they have "breaks" but the game they give you during the test isn't even good.
The scoring system on the test is confusing because you have to find a chart to see if you're on grade level.
4. Teachers:
If your teacher uses I-ready just know they are being lazy unless it's forced by the school district to take a testing diagnostic.

This app is not good for children at school. Every time my child comes home she has homework to do and it stresses her out. I say schools should not allow this app at all.

Im a 5th grader and this is a waste. I'm enforced to do 2 lessons per subject every week, And as I'm one of the smartest kids in my grade, I had a incredible streak of 53 lessons passed straight, all of a sudden I reach the next level and I'm learning stuff my 8th grade cousin has never heard of. The stupid diagnostic is a waste of time and a terrible way to test kids. DO NOT MAKE YOUR KIDS DO THIS!

They keep giving me lessons that I don't understand and isn't Iready supposed to teach me things? Well its not. They don't give me any background knowledge on what I'm supposed to be learning, and it just sucks I have to do this every morning. If I am ever going to continue using Iready I wan't to at least get backround knowledge on it if they are giving me a lesson.

IT IS TERRIBLE
April 27, 2023

Iready is a waste of my time. I hate it so much because the lesson take so long to complete because the dude won't shut up and I am assigned 4 lessons a week and 45 minutes in each subject. I've read other reveiws from a person who writes math books and she also said it was terrible. Also please sign the pettion to ban Iready from schools. I would really apreciate that, here's the link https://www.change.org/p/ban-i-ready-from-schools
