For my small group instruction, we currently have a small, rectangular table. It is not big enough to comfortably hold 4 students and their materials. We cram ourselves around this table for Language Arts groups (called Daily 5) and also for Math group rotations. Small group instruction has totally transformed the way I teach. I can teach a small number of students (3-7 at a time) to their learning needs and differentiate accordingly based on the learning level of the group I am working with. I know the success that this kind of grouping has in the world of education, I can only imagine how much better it can be when we have the proper learning space! I'm dreaming of a place where students will not need to hold their materials on their laps or have to sit on the floor for small group instruction. I have one little guy in particular who will benefit from this form of seating. He is in a wheelchair due to spina bifida and having more room to access his materials will be a game-changer for him. Right now we make the best of it and do the best we can with what we have. This seating option will help make a difference for ALL 27 of my students by giving them plenty of space to sit comfortably during differentiated small group instruction for both Language Arts and Mathematics.
