The coconut tree

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom - Bill Martin Jr., John Archambault, Lois Ehlert

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom goes back to when I was a child and learning the alphabet. This book can be incorporated into the classroom in many ways. One of the ways I think my future students would benefit would be by learning the alphabet. Some students coming into Kindergarten do not even know the Alphabet song or their letters. This would be another fun way that students can learn their letters and even go over what sounds they make. In addition to learning the alphabet, I think students could be taught a counting principle with the way this book is structured. On each page They could add how many letters are climbing up the tree at one time.
