Our big gorillas are just as excited about new books as our little gorillas! Today we passed out new books to any PK-8th grader who met the at-home reading goal for one week in the past 9 weeks. We will celebrate with ice cream sundaes on Friday for those students who turned in at least 3 weekly logs! The books all have a gorilla stamp "Goin' bananas over books" on the inside cover which means the students can keep their books they received today or if they read it and want to exchange it for another "Goin' bananas over books" they may do so as many times as they wish! Keep on reading gorillas!
