Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

One of my favorite books is "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault.  I always do a unit in the fall with my class.  I started the year creating a coconut tree for our reading corner.  I got the idea from pinterest.  I used an old carpet roll and covered it with brown butcher paper.  Then I used an umbrella and covered it with green butcher paper leaves.  Make sure you start from the bottom and work your way to the inside of the umbrella.  I started from the middle and went out and I had to make it twice.  I then used foam letters I bought at Michaels to decorate the trunk of the tree.  I used a Christmas tree stand to make the tree stay upright.
