Dear Educa<strong>to</strong>rs, Parents, and Learning Partners:<br />
Welcome <strong>to</strong> SPIDER-MAN IN AMAZING ADVENTURES — high-interest Supplemental<br />
language activities <strong>to</strong> engage more young children and families in reading activities. This master<br />
copy was developed jointly by the U.S. Department of Education and the National Dairy Council<br />
as part of the AMERICA READS CHALLENGE: READ*WRITE*NOW! initiative. President<br />
Clin<strong>to</strong>n has proposed the AMERICA READS CHALLENGE <strong>to</strong> help children read well and<br />
independently by the end of third grade.<br />
SPIDER-MAN IN AMAZING ADVENTURES provides a range of activities for educa<strong>to</strong>rs,<br />
parents, and learning partners <strong>to</strong> do with children from kindergarten through sixth grade. These<br />
activities engage children in fun with words, help sharpen their reading skills, and improve their<br />
oral and written communications skills. Children learn about nutrition, problem solving, and team<br />
building as they work through the booklet. The activities are arranged in this booklet from simple<br />
<strong>to</strong> more complex, and their flexibility invites you <strong>to</strong> adapt each one <strong>to</strong> the needs and abilities of<br />
your children. Children may work on activities alone, or in a team with other classmates,<br />
friends, and family members. They can work on one activity a week, or do several activities in the<br />
same week. By using the ideas in the “Try It!” box, activities can be extended <strong>to</strong> reinforce and<br />
enrich skills and knowledge.<br />
Since the activities in this master copy are not copyrighted, we encourage you <strong>to</strong> copy them for<br />
use in your classroom, library or home.<br />
We hope that you and your children will find these high-interest activities a perfect supplement <strong>to</strong><br />
your programs, and that you will share your master copy with other teachers, librarians, and<br />
parents. Working <strong>to</strong>gether, we can reach President Clin<strong>to</strong>n’s AMERICA READS CHALLENGE<br />
<strong>to</strong> have many more children reading well and independently by the end of third grade.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Richard W. Riley<br />
