This high school library has four sections that can be reserved...Lab B, Lab F, the main instructional area / computer bay, and a soft seating area social zone which connects to the magazine area. Teachers sign up for these areas. They share resources and space. This represents equal use for all. (I need a new chart to allow for the split in that third column!) Taking this picture showed me this!!!
Dailyshoot Challenge: Illustrate the word equality today with a photograph that shows your favorite interpretation.
