First install KDE. Open a terminal and type:

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

Then if you logout, when you log back in you'll be given a choice of whether to boot into gnome or KDE.

To make KDE default, open a terminal and type:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm

This will let you pick your default desktop manager.
