The Evolving Library, RISSE

by Jon Katz
The Evolving Library

When I first saw this library a few months ago, there was nothing in it but a bookshelf filled with donated books. But see what the Army of Good has done. The floor lamp (another on the way), the rug, the bean bag chairs, the table, the puzzles, the teacher, the software learning tools. The library has become the heart of the RISSE after school, a place for the children to read, sit quietly, do their homework, talk to Ms. Emma, their teacher, and one another.

Everything in it is moveable, and each day, the students rearrange it all according to their tastes and needs.

A haven, a special place donated by the Army Of Good.
