My first impression for this photo was, “Wow!
What a good idea for a school library. Of
course, the sign would not be taken literally. Who would dare say you couldn’t
sit in the chairs if you didn’t have an idea?
Other
questions that immediately came to mind:
•Could
this be the library’s version of a buddy bench?
•Where
in the library could this kind of area be set up?
•Would
this space need to be reserved for small group conversations? It might if it
were in a large high school.
•How
could the space be defined? Area rug? Floor pillows? Funky chairs? A low table
with a dry- erase top? I think I would put a large ottoman in the middle of the
four chairs in the photo
rather than a table. Then you wouldn’t have to remind the kids to get their
feet off the furniture. :-/ I would get someone (perhaps a parent volunteer) to
make a portable dry-erase surface that could be
laid on top of the ottoman.
