Sidney Spider – A Tale of Friendship

Once upon a time, there was a large spotted spider called Sidney who

lived in the top corner of Mrs Brown’s shed. He was a very special

spider because he spun beautiful golden webs, but Sidney was lonely.

When he arrived last year, all the other spiders said, “Go away,

Sidney. We don’t want you here. You’ll steal all our prey with your

golden webs.” So, Sidney hid away in his dark corner feeling sad.

One bright, sunny morning, Mrs Brown decided to spring clean her

shed. So, she opened up the door and banged her broom, feather

duster and dustpan down on the floor. Sidney and all the other

spiders in the shed shivered in fear. Soon, Mrs Brown started to sing

Incy Wincy Spider at the top of her voice and Sidney shivered a bit

more. Then Mrs Brown picked up her broom and started to sweep:

swish, swash, swish, swash, swish, swash.

Sidney looked down from his deep, dark corner and saw Mrs Brown’s

broom coming closer and closer and closer: swish, swash, swish, swash,

swish, swash. “Help!” cried Sidney. “Please help me.” Luckily, Susie, a

tiny house spider, heard him. “I’m in the old flowerpot behind the

spade,” squeaked Susie. “Throw out your line and come and hide with

me.” So, Sidney threw out a fine golden thread and landed gently in

Susie’s flowerpot. “Thank you, Susie,” said Sidney smiling.

A few minutes later, Sidney and Susie heard: swish, swash, swish,

swash, swish, swash. Oh no, Mrs Brown’s broom was heading for the

flowerpot. “Help!” cried Sidney and Susie. “Please help us.”

Luckily, Stanley, an ancient spider, heard them. “I’m in the red welly

boot under the bench,” mumbled Stanley. “Throw out your line and

come and hide with me.”

So, Sidney threw out a fine golden thread and grabbed Susie.

Together they landed with a gentle thump in the old red welly boot.

“Thank you, Stanley,” said Sidney and Susie smiling.

A few minutes later, Sidney, Susie and Stanley heard: swish, swash,

swish, swash, swish, swash. Oh no, Mrs Brown’s broom was heading for

the red welly boot. Mrs Brown bent over to pick up the boot but,

luckily, her phone rang at that very moment. “I will come

immediately,” they heard her say. So, Mrs Brown picked up her

broom, feather duster and dustpan and rushed out of the door.

“Hooray!” said Sidney, Susie and Stanley. “Come on everyone, let’s

have a party!” they said.

So, all the other spiders crawled out of the holes. First, they all

shook one of Stanley’s legs to welcome him. Next, they danced a

special spider dance in the middle of the shed. After that, Sidney

knew that he would never be lonely again.

Ready for a break?

Monday 11th May - Maths

In Maths today and tomorrow I would like you to practise

counting in 10s. You can flash ten fingers each time for

10,20,30 etc. We have done lots of practise in class! Some

ideas are:

Counting forwards and backwards to and from 100 in 10s

Lay out 10p coins and count them in 10s

There are lots of counting in 10s songs on

www.youtube.com. The children love to sing them in class!

You could make a ‘skip counting lacing plate’

Remember to have lots of fun and keep doing it little and

often!
