Sammy Spider's First Passover Worksheets

by Sylvia A. Rouss

Sammy Spider is fast asleep on the Shapiros' living room ceiling when a broom breaks his web during the family's spring cleaning for Passover. As his mother teaches him to spin a new web, one shape at a time, Sammy can't stop watching the Shapiros' seder below: the matzah, the seder plate, and the piece of matzah hidden for Josh to find after the meal. A cheerful Passover story that is also a book of shapes.
