Ms. TeQuoria Flowers' Kindergarten class at I.C.E.S. would love to share a seasonal activity!
This week we have been learning all about apples. We read fiction and nonfiction text. We also conducted some research and discovered interesting facts about apples! 📚🍏
Friday, we used the facts we learned to write our own All About Apples pieces. To wrap up the lesson we enjoyed a fun apple-tasting activity.

Our October 5, 2026, teacher in-service day brought teachers, paraprofessionals, and support staff together for Literacy Clinic Session 2: Basics and Books!
It was a great day of learning, collaboration, and hands-on practice as our team explored how to:
📊 Use student data to identify the essential skills students need.
🎯 Target instruction with a clear learning goal.
📖 Choose the right book to support that goal.
🗣️ Give students meaningful opportunities to read, practice, and apply their learning.
Each group did a wonderful job modeling instructional expectations and sharing ideas! Thank you to our staff for your active participation and dedication to helping every student grow as a reader. 👏

9/25 was DOLLY DAY in Mrs. Kendrick’s Kindergarten class at I.C.E.S.! 💕🎶
The students read Dolly books about her childhood, life, dreams, and generosity; learned about her Coat of Many Colors; made our own cowboy & cowgirl hats; listened to Dolly’s children’s music; and, of course, enjoyed Dolly’s favorites—potato chips & sweet tea! 🥔🥤
Our little cowboys and cowgirls had a day full of learning, laughter, music, and a whole lot of Dolly sparkle! ✨💗
