Entry Way
The main door of the media center is located in the main hallway. To the left side of the door is a big window.
The picture below is of the reading spot with foam mats I place on the floor to keep the kindergarteners in their places.
The Stacks
You can see the fiction, nonfiction, and everybody books in this picture This is the young adult section
This is the small reference section along with the classroom sets of books and other teacher materials.
Seating
This is the only seating that is available to students other than to sit on the floor or the green bench. I use the tables for center work or having the students read independently,
Storage
There are two places in the media center for storage. One is in the library and the other is in the computer lab. The computer lab storage cabinet is for AV materials, whereas the storage cabinet is for library supplies, bulletin board supplies, and school supplies.
Computer Lab
The computer lab is home to 30 computers. The teachers may check out the computer lab during certain times during the day. Computer instruction takes place daily through the workshop style of teaching in the media center.
Achievement Board
Every month I am responsible for creating an achievement board to feature student work that has made a 3.0 or higher . The board is located in the main hallway in between the entrance between the media center and computer lab.
