Both the tables and chairs are stationary (not on castors). The tables are awkward to move (heavy and odd-shaped). I'm nervous whenever I drag the tables that they will rip the carpet. ]]> 2019-05-25 19:23:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363480501 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363481287 2019-05-25 19:37:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363481287 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363481402 2019-05-25 19:39:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363481402 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363481946 If I want students to feel comfortable in the library to collaborate, sitting around one big table isn't going to help. . . . . ]]> 2019-05-25 19:48:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363481946 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363482080 The shelving is all fixed, including this stack (one of three stacks) of nonfiction resources. These take up about one third of the centre floor space. ]]> 2019-05-25 19:50:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363482080 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363482096 With the amount of floor space these stacks take up, it means there is very little other space for student use. I feel these stacks create a "tug-of-war" between needed resources and flexible learning and creating spaces for students.]]> 2019-05-25 19:50:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/363482096 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365062507 There are three desktop computers on a long counter. They get used multiple times a day by students searching on the catalog for books and approximately for four hours a week by Grade 6 and 7 students for typing up assignments.]]> 2019-06-01 19:57:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365062507 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365062740 The counter space can accommodate more than the three desktops but the extra space is just used for storage of materials (and a giant Cat in the Hat stuffed animal). There is also "wasted" space under the counter that is used for empty totes.]]> 2019-06-01 20:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365062740 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365485706 2019-06-04 06:01:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365485706 ebuhr48 https://padlet.com/ebuhr48/5ss0pndtptq6/wish/365485834 What about moving these tables out of here and hanging a green screen on rollers in front of or behind the projector screen (which is on rollers).
