We have owned the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (Book & CD) since we started homeschooling years ago and the kids have always loved it. Here are some awesome free resources to go with this book and CD.

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom from The Virtual Vine

Once you get started on this book, it can lead you into so many directions. You can slide into an ocean or summer unit, or branch out and go the way of the monkey .. Five Little Monkeys Jumping On the Bed, Caps for Sale, etc. Because I’ll have basically my same Language Arts class from last year, minus a couple, I’m going to start the year with this book and use it as a re-introduction and review of the letters and sounds. Where we’ll end up … who knows! Chicka Chicka, BOOM BOOM!!! 🙂

I’ll Meet You at the Top of the Coconut Tree from Peace Love & Learning

After the shared reading, the kids can make their own version, coloring in the letters and putting real band-aids on them. They LOVE this! (There’s a little picture clue to remind them where each letter needs its band-aid.) The teeny tiny band-aids are perfect for this project – you’ll need 6 for each child. If you’re planning on starting the year with Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and you think that your class might like this book, click below the picture for a copy of the full-color shared reading version and the black/white student version.
