While some may say that I-Ready is a beneficial to students, it's not because it doesn't show accurate test scores, and is so boring to the kids.
I-Ready is total trash. Kids spend HOURS trying to get ONE SINGLE LESSON complete! You can't skip their dialogues, it takes forever, and they have the LAMEST JOKES EVER! They have random cutscenes of two aliens talking, (don't even ask what the voice actors were like...), and there is no skip button. Just teach reading and math yourself teachers, and don't torture your students with this weapon they call a learning tool. Use Khan Academy, for all I care...
As a student, I have to say that I absolutely hate iReady. It's a program that's supposed to help me improve my math and reading skills, but it's nothing more than a mind-numbing slog. The exercises are boring and repetitive, and the graphics look like they were designed in the early 2000s. Every time I have to log in to iReady, I feel a sense of dread wash over me. It's like being stuck in a never-ending cycle of frustration and tedium. Honestly, if I never have to use iReady again, it'll be too soon.
Iready made me braindead because of the fact that watching paint dry is more fun than doing iready. If you are forced to do iready you should almost always find some kind of hack to save you from becoming bored to death.
I-ready is the worst app created. THERE IS A REASON EVERY STUDENT HATES IT! My name is Vivi and after shooting the i-ready video, my life was ruined. DON'T WASTE TIME ON I-READY!
I ready does not help you at all. The lessons are really long and they don't even grade you the correct grade when you get is right. Sometimes when you get one question wrong it grades you a 50 percent. I ready diagnostics it only grades you what you get wrong it doesn't grade you what you get right at all and the lessons and I already are really long they take 10 minutes just to finish and the quiz when you get one question right it the grade you a 50% sometimes.
When i get question wrong it doesnt tell me how i got it wrong it just shows the right answer and i am so confused because it wont tell me how i got it wrong it just says "wrong next question"
When I was in 5th grade, I see that Iready was fun. So, I went to it and do it and it hanged m,y whole life. Depression, sadness, torture and brain damage. You don't learn anything and if you get 2 wrong, you will not pass and restart. I really wanted to go to these schools that have no iready. Iready is stressful and if you see, pls dont do it, it will change your life to downhill and think about it, will Iready been seen in college requriements. HECK NO. Thats why high school have no ieady because iready ios not important and have to focus on the sat and aps. Iready is trash.
I reary doesn't taste good and it was totally made by poopy people. The characters are sad and made of butts. Y are it so bad? Eat the creator.
It is horible human trash it sucks what's the point it is so stupid I mean like what on earth geez it sucks.
I-Ready is a pretty good way to learn math, though the screen glitches really often, and it's not fun to go through the long lessons. I wouldn't choose I-Ready for a math resource.
Bad the schools don't know it causes stress but really easy to edit any way possible solid 2 stars really sucks.
I would put this in a zero stars but that sadly isnt possible): The math lessons take forever and in the few times that i fail it it is so frustrating, its more dumb that the reading lessons are so short compared to the math ones (that makes no sense) and if you get more than one wrong on the question even if your not done you already know you failed... would toltally recommend if you want to drain the life out of your students!
The lessons were so boring and made me want to kill myself. When you didnt pass a lesson, you would have to redo the whole thing over again which made me want to jump off the empire state building. Should only be used as a form of torture to people instead of the death penalty. Would rate in the negatives, but i cant. 100% do not use fail your class instead.
It make us to do work that we dont know and if we use the right answer it says it wrong and iready is not good anymore
I-ready is so overrated! I am in sixth grade and it always goes way ahead of what I am doing in class. Whenever I say the right answer, it says I am wrong and then shows the exact answer I just typed in. Also, that british voice is a nightmare.
I-ready is honestly a nightmare for kids. When I was 10 we had to have a %75 or above but I was on level D and the lesson were way too long. It took me 78 minutes to do one lesson that I got a %67 on. It made me so mad that I literally (excuse my typos) Screamed at the top of my lungs. (I had to walk all recess) So that is why i-ready is the worst app EVER. Heres a video of when i went rage mode 10 years ago :). Also I go to sleep crying because i keep hearing that strange sound coming from my PC."Can you find the sum of 10/12 and 4/6" me: "HOW ABOUT YOU,CANT YOU SOLVE IT YOURSELF?". I hate i-ready so much that is the reason i am so depressed. ----------NOTE:do NOT use this website for schools----------
When you get 3 or more questions wrong in the quiz, you already know you failed, but you gotta run through the rest of it, then in the end, have to redo the whole lesson, ixl might be annoying but atleast you don't gotta redo the whole thing if you get more than 3 wrong instead you just reanswer a different set of questions. And you can redo an ixl as many times as you want, but with iready, if you fail 2 times, you get a new lesson, its helpful for some but it pisses me off
I-Ready has over a continuous exposure that caused me to befall into a deep depression of happiness withdrawal. Simply thinking about "it" has made my day extremely miserable.
Overall, no.
Answer: It's designed extremely poorly. So, therefore it makes it miserable to do. It also doesn't help that the school systems don't give a shit as long as the TEST SCORES are high so they can get GOVERNMENT FUNDING.
Answer: Sweetheart, you might want to sit down for this one. It's because they want you to suffer an plethora of hours just for you hear an irrelevant explanation that you knows it's blindingly transparent and gratuitous to make pontifications.
Answer: Because its so goofy agh and boring as heck itself
Answer: I DO NOT THINK YOU ARE A DUMBASS SORRY ABOUT THAT JUST RELOAD THE WEBSITE BEFORE ITS DONE SPEAKING
Answer: No they hell well don't they just want to get their filthy hands on cold hard cash by scammingevery school in the world.
