Let’s take a vote this holiday season…Pumpkins or
SPIDERS?!?! If it was my class, spiders
would win hands down! I was just having
some fun with spiders and wanted to share this activity packet with you to use
during this “spooky season”. This download
includes the following activities that is intended to be used as a “seasonal substitute” in your science classes for a special “trick-or-treat”!

- Spider
Silhouettes – copy, cut and place around your classroom, inside
textbooks, on windows or wherever these beauties would like to sit and
wait for their prey J
- Spider
Identification Cards – 12 cards featuring some amazing spiders
that you can pass out to groups of students in order to read and use to
complete the puzzle “Name That Arachnid”.
- Spider
Research – using the same format as the Spider Identification
Cards, have students either choose a spider to research and present or use
the pictures included to get the students started.
- ‘Parts
of a Spider’ is the activity to use before bringing out spider
specimens to look at using a dissecting scope or magnifying glass. I have included a Spider Labeling sheet
for a spider’s outer structure and a more challenging labeling sheet of
the anatomy of a spider.
- Preserve
a Spider Web – a fun activity to assign students over a weekend so
they can bring in their webs to showcase (and it’s great as holiday
decoration for your room!).
Have a Happy Halloween from Nitty Gritty Science!
