Spider Week *MWF

This week was all about spiders.  We read the books The Itsy Bitsy Spider, The Spider and the Fly, and The Very Busy Spider.  We enjoyed playing on the giant spider web.  We learned the parts of a spider.  The new words we learned we're legs, eyes, abdomen, spinnerets and fangs.  We talked about how a spider catches flies in it's sticky web and wraps it up.  We played a spiderweb game where we threw "flies"(cotton balls) on to the web and tried to get them stuck.  We also danced to "The Spider in the Web" and "spider on the floor".
Next week will be all about pumpkins!
