Friend or Foe?

What did I learn from my students today? I learned who is afraid of spiders and who is not! Here is a picture of Fuzz Head who was found lurking in the hallways before school. I was called in to capture poor Fuzz Head and rescue him from a screaming teacher and students who were shouting,”Kill It!” Poor Fuzz Head. Do you think spiders are cute or creepy? Interesting or disgusting? Look how much more we can see when we look at the spider under the microscope? What things do you notice that you can’t see without the microscope?

(Tyler) Its cool how under a microscope a spider looks like a little squirrel. (Mike) The only problem is that it doesnt have a tail,and it has eight eyes. (Tyler & Mike) There is always more to see than you think there is so stop and take a look at your surroundings every once and a while.
I thought that this article was very interesting. I personally think that spiders are like eight legged eight eyed squirrels.
I honestly think spiders are creepy and disgusting, they really freak me out. Without the microscope you can’t see the eyes, which scared me when I looked in the microscope.
Spiders are very interesting to look at under a microscope. I have never ever really cared for spiders or paid any attention to them. But now I realize that spiders are as important as we are to the enviorment. We should all think about what you are really doing to the spider before we kill it.
