Example: Have each group take 3 pages and at the end have everyone tap out their rhythm in a predetermined order. There are more pages than groups, so you can divide it up as you like. Read book a fourth time and have Group 1 tap out their rhythm after the first page turn, then have Group 2 tap out their composition after the second page turn, and so on.Now send children into 5 small groups to create their own 1 measure composition (you could increase it to 2 measures, if you would like.).Read the story a third time, but instead of a silent 4 beat TALA, have kids tap out the created rhythm each time.Create a 4/4 rhythm with your students using one of the Note Knacks sets and have kids practice it.(Kids can tap out 4 beats for the TALA, if you would like.) There are 15 turns including adding one at the very end of the story. Read a second time and add a 4 beat TALA after every page turn.(This is a great time to highlight poetry) “Notice how words can be said to a steady beat”. Read book and have children tap the steady beat as you read.5 sets of Note Knacks and Time Signature Frames.Book “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom” by Bill Martin Jr.Students will create a 1-measure composition to use after each page.Students will make the connection between language arts and music.Of course, you can play/ do anything your kids can dream up!!

Google+: google.Chicka Chicka Boom Boom is the perfect book to incorporate into a Kindergarten music lesson! Lots of kids know it, it has its own steady beat, and it is a lot of fun!! I have updated it a bit by inserting a TALA (you know how I love my TALAs!!!) and have given an example of what to play. Visit our store!
