Good Night, Gorilla Read Together
Dear Families - Young children learn a lot about reading by watching other people read to them. To play this game with your child, paste the pictures on top of the bold type word they describe. Then, with your child "reading" the pictures, read this summary of Good Night, Gorilla.
Idea taken from Adopted from http://curry.virginia.edu/go/wil/Good_Night_Gorilla_Activity_Card.pdf
I found different clip art of animals because I "expanded" the story by having the children add pictures of each animal going back to the zoo.
