When to Administer a Lesson Quiz or Comprehension Check

Lesson Quizzes or Comprehension Checks are to be given flexibly throughout the pacing of
i-Ready Classroom Mathematics. A few options for implementation are:
• At the start of the Explore session Before starting a new lesson, provide the Lesson Quiz or
Comprehension Check from the previous lesson.
• At the end of the Refine session After the completion of the Refine session, provide the
Lesson Quiz or Comprehension Check to assess student understanding.
• In place of the Refine session If the various data points from the duration of the lesson show
student growth and success, provide the Lesson Quiz or Comprehension Check in place of the
Refine session activities.
