I started this pack last year in August {the first week or two of school} and you can imagine why it never got finished… It was the first thing I worked on and finished when I finished the school year last week.
I always do Chicka Chicka Boom Boom with my first graders at the very beginning of school. So these activities are geared toward beginning of first grade or kindergarten.
Here is a glimpse of what the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Mini Unit incldues. It is mostly center activities with recording sheets or follow up worksheets.
It is listed in my Teachers Pay Teachers store.. Here is a quick link:

What letter comes next center cards.
There are 16 bright and colorful center cards and a recording sheet in this activity.
What letter comes first in ABC order.

These will also work great with clothespins- if you want to skip the recording sheet option.
Letter Tree- color word pick
Students look at the Letter Tree then mark on the recording sheet what color the letters are.
Count the Coconuts!
12 center cards and a recording sheet are included.

Tomorrow is our last day of school this year!
I can not believe that another year has gone by. This was my 12th year to teach.. and I do believe it went by quicker than any other year. I feel like we just started!
As an end of the year gift I am giving my students a framed picture of our class from a few weeks ago.. I got them printed in a 5x7 size and bought frames.
I wrapped them in simple brown paper sacks and printed a label for each one.
Nothing fancy.. but I always give my students some kind of picture to keep as a gift. I have done little albums but I hate to admit that I have slacked on my picture taking this year…
I really like this group picture so I hope they will keep it and remember their first grade year!
I am linking up with Courtney at Swimming Into Second
We spent some time last week making butterflies, bees, and ladybugs to go along with out insect unit. They turned out really cute!
The bees are a free download from Teacher’s Pay Teachers. Here is the link:
It’s a precious little art activity from Fall Into First.
The ladybugs and the butterflies are from this great book..
You can buy it on Amazon..
