Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

"Chicka Chicka Boom Boom! Will there be enough room?" Many of you may be familiar with this popular childrens' book commonly read in Kindergarten. Thanks to one of our summer visitors I was able to share this loved book with the students at Baya Primary. They may not have understood 50% of the words, but they sure did love the rhythm of the book and joining in on the chanting of Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Children here rarely see picture books and so the colored pictures alone captivated their attention. To take the lesson a step further I had the students trace their hands on green construction paper and together we created our own coconut tree with our names in alphabetical order. The children had a great time tracing and cutting out their hands and were very proud of their final product.
