These very busy spiders worked out very well for an art project. After reading the book, "The Very Busy Spider" by Eric Carle, the children used their fingerprints to make their spiders and some even made the fly that their spider caught.
After they made their spiders, they got to choose a piece of yarn and weave it around the plates. It was tricky for some, but once they got the general idea, it went very smoothly.
You will notice that some of the children paid close attention to the number of legs and body parts that the spider had and that the fly had. We even ended up with spiders with lots of eyes! We could tell that that children had liked that part of our discussion.
