Let's Count Spiders
by Debbie Hasbrook Hey little spider, What’s for lunch today? I see your lovely web, A hanging in the tree. It looks something’s caught there, How many will there be? Let’s count! 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 Materials needed: felt board, yarn web, 10 pipe cleaner spiders to place on the web. Directions: Recite poem and add one spider. Repeat until you have placed all ten spiders on the web. Dancing Spider Web Game
by Debbie Hasbrook Spider webs are beautiful, and oh so tricky, Some of the strings are dry, and some of the strings are sticky. The spider has so many legs, I don’t know what would happen, If she forgot which string was what, Always walk webs carefully. Dancing Web game: Using two colors of yarn or tape make a large spider web on the floor. Turn on spider dancing music and have the children dance only on the none-sticky strings. If they forget or step on a sticky string they are stuck until the music stops. Then play again. Little Miss Muffet
Author Unknown Little Miss Muffet, Sat on her tuffet, Eating her curds and whey. Along came a spider, Who sat down beside her, And frightened Miss Muffet away. I'm a Little Spider
Author Unknown Sing to tune of "I'm a Little Teapot" I'm a little spider watch me spin If you'll be my dinner I'll let you come in Then I'll spin a web to hold you tight And gobble you up in ONE BIG BITE! I wish I was a Spider
by Debbie Hasbrook I wish I was a spider, So tiny, yet so strong. I would be an artist, Making webs all day long. On windy days I’d have some fun, And sway within the breeze. On sunny days I’d rest on my web, And wait for bugs to eat. Spiders
by Janet Bruno Spiderlings hatch from eggs. Each one has eight tiny legs. A spider has more eyes than you. Most have eight, and you have two. A spider has two body parts. Across its web it quickly darts. From a spider's spinnerets Sticky spider silk jets. Spiders feel the frantic tugs, Of their favorite food; it's bugs! The Spider
Author Unknown Watch the busy spider, He's helpful as can be, Eating insects all day long Now they won't bite me. |
A Spider Visit
by Debbie Hasbrook Sitting underneath a tree, Much to my surprise. A spider on a long thin string, Came down to sit at my side. I looked at her, she looked at me, There wasn't much to say. As the wind began to gently blow, the spider began to sway. I guess she’d seen enough of me, She climbed up and went away. If a Spider Invites You to Dinner
by Debbie Hasbrook If a spider invites you for dinner, And you are a bug or fly, I would be so careful, Or you may get a big surprise. The spider will ask you to take a seat, On a spider web nearby. But you’ll be stuck, you’re out of luck. Fly away and you'll be fine. Spiders have Eight Legs
by Debbie Hasbrook Most people have two legs, Most animals have four, Spiders have eight legs, Let’s count to eight, no more. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 Itsy Bitsy Spider
Author Unknown The itsy bitsy spider Went up the water spout, fingers imitate a moving spider Down came the rain and washed the spider out fingers imitate falling rain Out came the sun and dried up all the rain arms make a large circle And the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again fingers imitate a moving spider. I'm Afraid of Spiders
by Debbie Hasbrook I’m afraid of spiders, Even though their small. They move so very quickly, And make no sound at all. When I find a spider in a place it shouldn't be, My Mommy puts it in a jar, Outside she sets it free. She says spiders are important, They have a job to do. They don’t want to hurt us. They’re just passing through. Spider Webs
by Amy Goldman Koss The spider weaves a sticky web To capture bugs to eat. What keeps the spider's sticky web From sticking to her feet? Spider webs are very tricky Because not all the strands are sticky. Unlike the passing hapless fly, The spider knows which strands are dry. But if she accidentally stands Upon one of the sticky strands, She still would not get stuck, you see-- Her oily body slides off free. |
