Spider Web Spinning Race Intro to Ordinal Numbers
Spider Math was inspired from a math workshop I attended where they used ants to teach some math concepts after reading The Ants Go Marching One by One. I utilized spiders and further developed a Multidisciplinary approach to teaching many math concepts. Additionally, we tied this into life cycles, habitats, comparing and contrasting arachnids and insects, and report writing about different spiders. During this unit, I always read Charlotte's Web by E.B. White to the class.
After reading the Ants Go Marching One By One, I introduced Ordinal Skills with this Spider Web Spinning Race.

Books Created by Children Below
The children who created these books wanted any money made from the sale of their books to be donated to the less fortunate. I explained things on this site are free, but I could include a few direct links to charities. Any charity would work, but it's not obligatory!
