IRI Idaho Reading Indicator K-3rd Grade

The current Idaho Reading Initiative (IRI) is given to all (K-3) public school students whom qualify.

The IRI is an early reading screener for students in K-3rd grade. The screener is mandatory for Idaho public school students in the Fall and Spring with an optional Winter assessment.

Different grade levels screen letter sound fluency, letter name fluency and reading skills.

The screener is set up with letter naming in kindergarten to reading fluency in third grade.
