Help me give my students a fully immersive experience with the book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Each child would have a copy to keep and learn the alphabet and letters in their names in a tropical paradise.
I love teaching kindergarten. Five year-olds have this amazing energy that is infectious. They devour stories, soak up knowledge like sponges, and always ask for more.
They love to be able to get up close and experience learning.
Each student has a unique point of view and they are eager to share with each other. There are days when they make you laugh, want to pull your hair out, or even cry. There is never a dull moment in kindergarten!
My Project
Learning the letters of the alphabet is one of the most difficult skills for kindergarteners to learn if they don't already come to school prepared with that knowledge. By transforming the classroom into a tropical paradise it would keep the students that already know their letters engaged and truly motivate those that don't while having a blast!
There are letter matching games, handwriting practice, fine motor skill activities, and letter identification items in this project.
There are also decorations like inflatable palm trees, a beach backdrop and leis. The best part? Every child gets to keep their own copy of Chicka Chicka Boom Boom to continue learning at home and begin to build their home library.
