We read Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom.


 



 

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom...Look Who's in our room!

I purchase a real coconut and shaved coconut at our local grocery store. Students get to use their 5 Senses with both forms of coconut. Providing a real life opportunity to touch coconut really helps my students make connections to our story!
 



 

We taste real coconut! YUM!

We make a class picture graph! Do You Like Coconut? I had each student cut out a traced circle to represent a coconut.

 
 



 


Each student gets to make their very own Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom Tree! The foam letters going up the coconut tree are letters in the child's name.

We make  Counting Coconut books! Each child gets to make a take home book! I used a circle scrapbook paper puncher and made the brown coconuts. The book reads like this.

COUNTING COCONUTS
1 coconut on the coconut tree.
2 coconuts on the coconut tree.
3 coconuts on the coconut tree.
4 coconuts on the coconut tree.
5 coconuts on the coconut tree.

 
 


 

We retell the story using our felt Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom tree! I have the Chicka, Chicka, Boom Boom CD. We sing the song as well do the tree!


 

We write the room wearing our Chicka Chicka Boom Boom hats!

We retell the story using magnetic alphabet letters!

We sequence the story using visuals!

 

Use alphabet cereal or pasta to letter sort.
Make a pocket chart chant that goes like this:
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom
___________ is in our room!

Allow students to manipulate magnetic letters or foam letters.
