Strike That

Well, the queen has decided she wants to learn about spiders. Tarantula spiders.

So about spiders we will learn! (insert slight squirm on my part)

In fact, she wants to get a spider for a pet. I told her to ask her Ma.

So, our spider/insect lessons will entail:

-parts of a spider
-different types of spiders
-what spiders eat
-build a spider web
-build a model of a spider
-learn difference between spiders and bugs
-parts of an insect
-different types of insects
-build an insect
-maybe talk about the different kinds of animals, but that's a little ambitious.

I will incorporate insect/spider words into her copy work and phonics. We will really focus on 6 and 8 (number of legs) and how to divide those into two groups.

We are officially starting school tomorrow!
