This summer Nettelhorst is partnering with the Chicago Public Library and its summer reading program.  Nettelhorst students who participate in the Chicago Public Library’s reading program and earn a t-shirt will be entered into a raffle.  Winners of the raffle will attend a field trip to the Harold Washington Library and have a picnic lunch.  The date of the field trip is TBA, but will take place during the first quarter of the upcoming school year.  Be sure to check out the Chicago Public Library summer reading program and suggested summer reading list for your child’s grade level.  A link can be found at the Nettelhorst Library Media Center. 

Also, encourage your child to join our student reading blog this summer at the Summer Book Talk Blog located on the top menu bar of the Library Media Center website.  Any student who blogs about the books they are reading over the summer will earn an additional raffle ticket for the field trip and will be practicing their keyboarding skills.

Lastly, check out additional cool activities on our Library Media Center website, including an activity where your child can practice their keyboarding skills as well as participate in some age-appropriate fun educational games for those rainy summer days.  All this and more can be found in the Interactives online Student Center.
