Students in my school are required to complete two reading lessons per week using a program called \"I-ready\". It was getting very hard for them to complete these lessons with our classroom computers because they were spending most of their time waiting for the program to load.\r\n\r\nI-ready is a fantastic program that uses a placement test to put students on a path that is at their own individual reading level. This is so important because students are all at different reading levels and this program helps individualize their instruction. When students are getting lessons at the appropriate level for them it helps them feel successful and helps avoid frustration.\r\n\r\nThe students I work with are delighted with the new computers. They are able to log in much faster and are not getting kicked off like they used to. These computers have made a world of difference and we are so very grateful to all of our donors.
