An Elephanormous Reading Goal Challenge...




Today, Tony Vecchio (the director of the Jacksonville Zoo) stopped by New Berlin and gave us an ELEPHANORMOUS challenge. He has challenged the students at our school to read 1 million words this year. If our school reaches the goal, Mrs. Reese will get to spend a day with the elephants and help clean up after them... The class who reads the most will get a behind the scenes tour of the elephant exhibit and their teacher will join Mrs. Reese on "clean up duty!"

In Kindergarten, we have set the goal of each child reading 180 books at home throughout the school year. Parents and students are responsible for logging the books read on the Book Log, which is located at the back of the agendas. Please read to your child daily, so we can meet this ELEPHANORMOUS challenge!
