October is the month for spiders

The theme for October is spiders and bats. We started the month by learning about the creepy spider. The students learned that spiders can be dangerous so no touching. They learned how they are different than insects. Then students watched as a spider wrapped his food up in silk. It was fascinating.
With the help of a remote control Tarantula they could watch the spider walk with all of it's eight legs. As they were leaving the students could choose a colored spider ring to take home.
