Another fun activity we did for Chicka Chicka Boom Boom was to make a 3-D tree book. We used toilet paper tubes for the trunk and cut the fronds in the same way as on the art page. The students used white glue to attach the fronds and the pom pom coconuts.
Inside the tree we either had a long piece of adding machine tape with the alphabet written on it (if we were feeling very smart) or a page that had the alphabet typed on it that they traced. If they chose the tracing alphabet, I had to cut the page into strips and staple them together before rolling it up to insert into the tube.
But guess what I caught some of my little geniuses were doing? They were putting the adding machine tape on top of the tracing page and tracing right through! So, next year everyone will use the adding machine tape and trace over an alphabet page.
