Prepare your "letter bag" ahead of circle time with some "r" objects. Include at least one red

rocket, robot, radio, and rope. Let the children say each object's name out loud when you
pull it from the bag.

Music & Movement:
"Chicka Chicka Skatter Sketter, Can You Pick Another Letter?" Instruct the children that they
are going to play a guessing game. Each child will get a chance to think of a letter of the
alphabet. A child will say the letter, and then the rest of the children will think of three things
that begin with that letter. The class will work cooperatively with the teacher. For example, the
teacher will say, (while snapping her fingers or clapping softly to a rhythm,) "Chicka chicka
skatter sketter, can you pick another letter?" She will point to the child she has chosen for this

children are too shy to choose letters themselves, the teacher can pick letters randomly, show
the letter, then ask the class to cooperatively come up with three words that begin with that
letter.)

| Bible Verse Bracelets: Revelation 1:8 "'I am the Alpha and the Omega. " |
| Bible Song: "The B-I-B-L-E" (Traditional) Explain that this song teaches the letters that spell out the name of the very best book to read! An additional, very fun, song to sing after the children learn the above song is "The Best Book to Read is the Bible," by Colin Buchanan. Click Hear for a sample |
| Chicka Chicka Name Tree Tree Template Page 1 Tree Template Page 2 (Letter Templates above in Morning Circle) Provide large sheets of paper and easels for the children. Help the children create a simple tree out of fingerpaints or with paints and brushes. It might help to have a basic outline drawn on the paper beforehand. Provide small squares of paper with the letters of each child's name. For example, for a child named “Josh,” you would give him a “J,” an “O,” an “S,” and an “H.” Let the children decorate or color in each of these letters. Then let them paste these letters onto their name tree |
Act it Out!
Have a mini-play for the story, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Pin a
different letter of the alphabet on the front of each child's shirt. Let
them act out the part of their letter as the story is read. (Try using
the audio recording of Chicka Chicka Boom Boom read by Ray
Charles.) When it comes to the tree-climbing part of the play, tell
the children to pretend they are climbing, climbing,climbing.
Remind them to fall gently when their letter falls!

"ABC God Loves Me" by The Land of Milk and Honey
As children and their read–aloud guides turn the pages from
A to Z, they’ll delight in lively rhyme that celebrates life as a
little one—make–believe, dressing up, wagon rides, and
hopscotch. And they’ll be reassured that God and loved
ones are always there looking out for them as they embark
on adventures big and small that are the hallmarks of
childhood.
