Chicka Chicka BOOM BOOM!

We have spent a fun-filled week up the coconut tree!

We have used Bill Martin, Jr.'s Chicka Chicka Boom Boom to help us explore letters, letter sounds, and launch Read Alone and ABC Centers this week!

            
    
                                                 

We also used our Five Senses to learn more about real coconuts!  We got to look, feel, listen, smell, and even taste coconut.  Then, like all good scientists, we worked together to record our observations. 

 


With all of that scientific work out of the way, it was time for a little coconut play!

First we used blocks and popsicle sticks to build our own coconut trees to hold letters just like the one in the book.  #STEM #engineeringanddesign

 

Then it was on to coconut art!  #KindergartenCreative #Abstract #thisishowweroll


If you would like explore the coconut tree and ABCs with your kiddos at home, here are a few of our favorite classroom links!
