Spiders' Webs

Today, we found a humongous spider web in the garden! We really enjoyed looking closely at it and then having a go at drawing it. Then we coloured them in, creating a piece of abstract art. I noticed that Betty's pencil control is getting really good. There's no need to print off or buy books of 'pencil control exercises' - just encourage children to draw!
