We have been reading "Monster" by Walter Dean Myers. When we were reading aloud, one of the students did not understand "chalking the body". So we did just that!
Lazy days in November .... some days it is just too nice outside...so we sat outside and read.

October 2015 - we took a break from reading and learned how to use a needle and thread to make FRIENDSHIP BRACELETS with scrap material in Kindle Club.
2015 - In October, we visited the Slicer Street Church of Christ. We met Spencer Furby and saw his "library" of books as well as the church library.
We also listened to a story about kindness to others no matter who they are or what they look like. We even enjoyed brownies and ice cream. A special thank you to Mrs. Carolyn Mullins for making the yummy brownies for everyone.
On nice days in September and October 2015, we enjoyed checkers outside on the KMS campus.

PROCEDURE AND POLICY FOR THE KINDLES effective January 6, 2014
The Kennett Middle School Library Media Center has 30 Kindles for use by students. The Kindle can be checked out at the library circulation desk. The Kindle will circulate each school day beginning at 7:20 AM and ending at 5:00 PM on Monday - Thursdays; and on Fridays until 3:00 PM on. Students and parents must complete a loan agreement accepting responsibility for any loss or damage to device or accessories, and agree to replace these items with new packaged replacements. Students must also attend the After School Enrichment Kindle Library Club program for at least 4 days before checking out a Kindle and must continue attending the program on a regular basis.
Only current KMS students who attend the After School Enrichment program are eligible to check out a Kindle. Students are assigned a certain Kindle device number. Students are allowed to check out the Kindle anytime during the school day beginning at 7:20 AM. Once a Kindle is checked out to a student, it becomes the responsibility of the student. When the Kindle is checked in, it must be in working order. It will be the student's responsibility to place the Kindle on the charging station in the Library Workroom after checking it in at the circulation desk.
Students must complete the "Getting to Know Your Kindle" training session with Mrs. Johnson prior to checking out a Kindle. If a student has any problem with his/her assigned Kindle, the student needs to see Mrs. Johnson immediately.
EXPECTATIONS: The KMS Library Media Center is a quiet place. We are all here to read, think, and learn. Everything you do in the library should add to your learning rather than interfere with your learning or with the learning of others.
Respect everyone and everything in the Library Media Center. Be engaged in reading, research, or other related schoolwork.
Please note: Effective January 2014
Replacement cost for KMS Kindle is $75.00
Replacement cost for the Kindle Case is $15.00
Total $90.00
Below are videos of students that stayed in the KMS Kindle Club for the first 5 week session. During this time, we read "Out of my Mind" by Sharon Draper. Each student told what they learned from reading this book and how it changed them.
