I-Ready causes stress for students and does not teach anything to students, is a big waste of time and has no benefits. ... With all this time students will not have time for extracurricular activities like sports. We have to remove I-Ready to take off all of these negative effects from students. In addition the district is planning on giving the iReady test… ... So they can train children for the SBAc annual test. So they will dramatically expand testing in the name of “gaming” the SBAc to try and improve falling testing scores. No matter that the iReady and SBAc have no value or validity. But above all else, the iReady Universal Screener is a dangerous assessment because it is a dehumanizing assessment. The test strips away all evidence of the students' thinking, of her mathematical identity, and instead assigns broad and largely meaningless labels. Homework is like medicine. If you take too little, it does nothing. If you take too much, it can kill you
