The Nutmeg

Connecticut 4th, 5th and 6th graders will again be choosing a favorite book from the 10 terrific pre-selected choices given them by Connecticut school librarians. At Reed,  5th graders who read 5 of the Nutmeg books are eligible for voting, as are 6th graders who read 8 of the ten Nutmeg books. This year the Nutmeg has been extended to 7th-9th grades. So we have two lists of books.  Students can read from  either list. who wish to earn credit for Nutmeg reading from now until January  (and thereby REGISTER TO VOTE in the January 2008 Nutmeg elections) can pick up a mini-book report in the library, fill it out and return it to the Nutmeg bin in the library. Students can also get credit for reading a Nutmeg books by taking an AR quiz on a school computer. Students can then add a sticker to their name on their class Nutmeg clipboard, which is on display in the library.

Students who meet our Nutmeg requirements are invited to lunch with an author!

We are pleased to announce...

Author  Elise Broach, author one of next year's nominee's, Shakespeare's Secret will be coming to Reed to speak to our AR 100s Club Members and Nutmeg Voters on April 9th!
