I absolutely LOVE to incorporate spiders into my monthly themes for October! They’re creepy, crawly, spooky, and scary – the best combination when it comes to piquing the interest of your kiddos.

This “Arachni-facts” chart is the perfect way to keep track of your new knowledge as you learn throughout a unit. I used chalk markers to write on the black legs – a fun little touch!
Learning about spiders naturally lends itself to plenty of science content. Cara and I collaborated to make The Science of October the perfect place to grab science resources for studying spiders!
I actually used this editable word work with Becks when I was homeschooling him in first grade. Grab the free printable at the bottom of the post!
How fun are these craftivities from Amy at Step Into Second Grade?! She’s written some excellent spider-themed posts over on her blog.
This fact files activity pairs well with any nonfiction text about spiders AND keeps all of your student’s knowledge and information organized in one easy-to-access-spot.
Spiders are so much fun! Be sure to bookmark this post by pinning the image below!
Happy Friday!
