Innovate the story of Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by changing the letters in the alphabet with the children in your classroom. You can do it together and have the children illustrate the pages. Have the children draw or glue in pictures of themselves climbing the coconut tree. The teacher can supervise or simply add the finishing touches. The children love the final copy and will ask to read it everyday!
