Learn Italian: È un tavolo piccolo.

In Italian, you usually do not need a separate word for "it". The verb È already means "he is", "she is", or "it is" depending on the context. Here, you just start directly with the verb!

Why does È have an accent mark on it?

The accent mark is very important! With the accent, è means "is". Without the accent, e means "and". Always remember to include the accent when you want to say "it is".

Why is the word order tavolo piccolo instead of piccolo tavolo?

In Italian, adjectives (words that describe things, like piccolo) usually come after the noun they describe. So instead of saying "a small table", you literally say "a table small".

The sentence uses un (a). If I wanted to say "the small table", which word for "the" would I use?

You would use il, making the phrase il tavolo piccolo. Because tavolo is a masculine noun starting with a normal consonant, it uses il for "the" and un for "a".
