Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!


This week we dove into our Chicka Chicka Boom Boom unit based on the book by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault.  The children enjoyed listening to the story and retelling it on their own.  Here is a look at the corresponding activities for the week!





 Centers

Art- The children were busy constructing coconut trees.  They worked on their fine motor skills using scissors and cutting the leaves for the tree. 

Language Arts- The kiddos went on a letter hunt in the sensory bin. They had to find the letters on their matching board.  Also, they focused on finding the letters in their name!

Math- Chicka boom trees matching the numbers.


Fine Motor- String coconuts (beads) on the coconut tree! 

Spanish- Color Bingo  

 
Self –portraits-  Every month, the children will complete a self-portrait. They will first identify their skin color and then paint clothes and the correct color of their features. This activity allows them to notice the similarities and differences in one another.  It is exciting to see the progression over the year! 

We celebrated Kai’s birthday with a fruit salad and Kai’s mom got to visit the classroom and read the story, A Bad Bubble by Adam Rubin.
