Give every student a cut out letter or
stick puppet letter of the alphabet. As you read the story the students
line up and sequence the alphabet. Give each student an alphabet letter
and have them act out their letter as you read the story.

I use Chicka-Chicka to introduce the
alphabet at the beginning of the year. After reading the book several
times we put coconuts with each letter of the alphabet on a palm tree in
our classroom. At the bottom of the tree is a sign that says "letter
of the week" Each Monday during the rest of the school year we take
the appropriate letter of the week off the tree and place it on the sign!

One good idea to introduce the whole alphabet is read the book "Chicka
Chicka Boom Boom". After you read the book, draw a palm tree on
construction paper and glue it on a cookie sheet. Then use the ABC magnets
and the children can retell the story!! The magnets of course stick to the
cookie sheet.
