Spiders, spiders, and more spiders

This week we are learning all about spiders. Now, Ms. Race absolutely does not like spiders so we want to learn as much as we can just to see her cringe. Here are a few questions we want answered....

1. How many eggs can they lay at one time?
2. How do jumping spiders jump so high?
3. How many spiders come out of one egg?
4. What do they catch in their webs?
5. What do spiders eat?
6. How do they shoot webs?
7. How do they eat their prey?
8. How big is a tarantula's egg?
9. Why do people not like spiders?
10. Why are they afraid of humans?

11. What are natural predators of spiders?


Please share cool websites, videos, or pictures of spiders with us!
