FIGURE 5 INDIVIDUAL ROTATION Central learning lab Adapted from Horn and Staker, 2015 In mainstream K-3 classrooms where Reading Horizons Discovery is used, the Individual Rotation model can be an effective model of instruction to focus on individual needs. For example, if students are weak in spelling, they would be assigned specific skill lessons or practice with the Vocabulary Word Wall. If fluency is a struggle, students could be assigned to read Little Books out loud following the highlighted words in the Reading Library. Practice Pages, direct instruction, and word and sentence dictation could also play into this rotation. In K-12 intervention settings, the Individual Rotation model provides a higher level of individualized activities based on each student’s IEP goals. This model frees up intervention teachers to work specifically with each student while the other students are on the computer learning Reading Horizons skills. 13
