Free Cute Printable Spider Counting Book For Preschool
Your preschool and kindergarten kids will have so much fun with this adorable spider counting book. From number recognition, counting, one-to-one correspondence, and even writing numbers, there are so many ways to practice early math skills with this little book.
Even if you are a spider hater like me, you and your young students will love these cute spider books.
The book is part of my popular spider activity bundle, but right now, you can get the book for free. The fun spider theme emergent reader in the bundle can be downloaded for free. It’s a perfect addition to your Halloween theme units and lesson plans in fall, or any time of year you learn about spiders.
How to Assemble the Spider Counting Books
The book is easy to assemble. It prints two books per page. I like to staple a set of pages together and then cut the set down the middle. Tada….super simple!
Two Version are Included
When you download the document, you will see that two versions of the books are included. The first version features numbers. Kids can read the simple, predictable text, find the number, and count the spiders on each page.
The second version has a blank space where kids can practice writing the number or number word.
The final page of each book features all of the numbers with rows of spiders to color.
Ideas for Using the Spider Counting Books
In addition to counting, you can also work on fine motor skills as you read through the spider book with your young learners.
Provide some spider counters like plastic spider rings, spider mini erasers, or spider stickers. As you read through the pages, encourage kids to add a spider ring to their fingers, move counters to a container, or apply stickers to the page to represent the correct number of spiders.
Additional Spider Activities in the Bundle
If you are looking for additional spider activities for your kids, they will enjoy the additional activities in the full Spider Activities Bundle from my store. Here are a few of my favorite activities in the set.
Spider Alphabet Activity
Looking for a hands-on way to teach letter recognition? The bundle includes a spider alphabet matching activity. You can use this one as an independent activity or as a small group game for your little learners.
Spider Color Match & Size Sorting Activity
A great addition to your math center, this spider color match and size sorting activity is the most popular activity in the set. Kids place spiders on their correctly colored web, but they can also sort them by size…small, medium, and large.
Spider Counting Ten Frame Activity
This hands-on Halloween math activity is one of my favorites because there are so many different ways that you can use it with your kids in the math center. Use it for focusing on simple one-to-one correspondence to simple addition and everything in between. I love using the ten frames to play a spider counting game.
The ten frames are like mini spider counting mats. You can use the cute printable spiders, balls of playdough, little plastic spiders, or spider mini erasers. Kids will love the ideas included in the activity…. what a fun way to give your kids seasonal math practice.
