Spider Subtraction

We made this activity to use as a math center for October while we learn about spiders and other creepy creatures for Halloween. Just print the webs and task cards on card stock and laminate. We use plastic spiders for counters that were spider rings from the party store. We cut the ring part off. Children use spiders on a web as their manipulatives to solve the subtraction problems on the task cards.

THEY LOVE THIS!
