Eek! A Spider!

I'm dropping in to share my favorite spider books and *free* activities today.

This time of year, students become increasingly more excited about trick-or-treat.  Visions of candy and costumes seem to preoccupy their thoughts.

Here a few books and activities that are sure to capture your students' attention.


Nonfiction:




These nonfiction selections offer brightly colored photographs.  They provide interesting facts and are written in kid friendly language.

Fiction:


                



My students have worn out my copies of Diary of a Spider...and who doesn't love Charlotte's Web?  I still cry every time I read that book.  :(

Activities:


Education to the Core - Mini-Book and Writing

The Applicious Teacher - Spider Word Sort

Amy Lemons - Spider Craft and Poem
Deborah Perrot - Spider Day Pack
Amanda Bryant - Word Search

These are a few of my favorite Spider freebies.
