The rocking chair will form an easily recognizable and inviting symbol for gathering together for whole group work and for sharing read alouds. The rocking chair imprints both authority and casualness in the classroom space, which is a vital mix for setting the stage in different activities! When there is a strong physical referent in the classroom for sharing books, it draws students in to the reading activity and keeps them as a most captive audience. The rocking chair also supports oral language development, as the stories told from that site and listened to from that perch will have greater power than that held in passing or in some other physical arrangement.
