This table and chair set will be the first thing the students see when they enter the reading room. It will be in the center of the room and be welcoming to the students to sit down and read. The table and chairs will also be used by teachers and teaching assistants when having meetings about reading. Right now we have old mismatched chairs of different sizes and colors. They are very heavy to lift and move and don't fit under the table easily. Right now, the students usually fight over sitting in the best seat at the table as there is one seat with padding. This new set will give us more room for our legs underneath. The yellow flower shaped table is the perfect fit for our little happy reading space!
