Spider Art Work (part II)

We continued with our spider art work today. Most of the children had cut out the head and the abdomen of the spider. I had also prepared the legs for the children to cut out. Once the children had cut out the legs, they only got 4 of it. Then I throw the question back to the children, asking them how many legs do a spider has. Most of them can answer the question correctly. However, they looked at the four legs puzzled. It took some of them a while to think of a solution to make it into eight while most of them needed to give hints.

Once they had placed the head and the legs onto the spider’s abdomen, they started to work on the eyes and the red marks on the back of the spider. It’s not easy for the children to follow exactly the same red markings as they saw on the black widow, so I allowed them to cut out any shapes they like to put it on the back. Some cut square, some cut diamond shape while some in rectangular.

After that, I placed a yarn on the back of the head for the children to hold it and play with their spider. 

I only managed to handle about half of the class to complete their art work today. Therefore, I shall continue with some of them the next day.
