A Personalized Learning Model
Dynamic Classrooms Meet the Needs of Every Student
R
ocketship classrooms allow us to maximize time for personalized learning, striving to
reach the right student with the right lesson at the right time. Blended learning is about
creating a flexible space where teachers leverage tools—tutors, online learning programs and
their peers—to engage kids in a truly personalized learning experience. Innovation is in our DNA;
we’re continually narrowing in on what’s best for students and our instruction—currently either in
the Flexible Model or the Rotational Model—features five core components.

Teachers engage students in grade level
instruction with their peers.

Teachers and tutors engage
students in small groups of peers on
their similar level.

targetedintervention
teamlearning
Teachers & tutors schedule
small group intervention for
students who are struggling
with certain concepts.
Targeted intervention is part of
our Response to Intervention
program.
Teachers provide a
framework for students
to collaborate, share
knowledge and build
social skills through
projects in small groups
with their peers.

adaptiveonlinelearning
Students have time to practice
concepts on computers.
Adaptive online learning
programs provide additional
practice where a student is
struggling and accelerate
students beyond grade level
materials when appropriate.
Rotational Model
In the Rotational Model, students spend most
of their day in the traditional classroom setting.
Students receive large group instruction,
experience small group and team learning
and receive targeted intervention from their
classroom teacher.
Students then rotate into Rocketship’s Learning
Lab for adaptive online learning, additional small
Rotational Classroom
group instruction, team learning and targeted
intervention—all led by Rocketship tutors. During
Learning Lab time, students also rotate through
enrichment where they participate in physical
education and the arts.
“THE FLEX MODEL IS DESIGNED TO
ADDRESS EACH STUDENT’S ACADEMIC
NEEDS ON A WHOLE NEW LEVEL.
IT’S A REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE FOR
PERSONALIZED LEARNING.”

Flexible Model
We’re pioneering ways to be even
more flexible with each student’s
day. In our Flexible Model, you
see the same components as the
Rotational Model, but in a single
space that allows for even more
personalized learning.
One space with three to five
educators and tutors provides
students with a combination of
all five components for the right
amount of time for each student’s
unique needs.
