Charlottes Web Craft, Writing, and Social Emotional Learning Activities Autism

These Social-Emotional Learning Activities align with the novel Charlotte’s Web. Bring Charlotte’s Web to life with these SEL Activities that help students explore emotions, build empathy, and practice social-emotional skills.

Designed for special education and elementary classrooms, this resource focuses on four key feelings — happy, sad, worried, and proud — with engaging activities that are easy to implement.

There are two weeks of lesson plans and activities to help students strengthen vocabulary, practice identifying emotions, and connect the story of Charlotte’s Web to their own lives.

This unit aligns with the CASEL framework and supports all five SEL competencies: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making.

Includes:

• Objectives and alignment to CASEL competencies
• Detailed lesson plans
• Vocabulary board
• Five Group Activities
  • Go Fish
  • Concentration
  • Charades
  • When I Feel Like…
  • Identify emotions in scenarios
• Individual Activities
  • Matching emotions (3 differentiated levels)
  • Identify how a character feels in the book
  • Four modified writing prompts (one for each emotion focused on in this unit)
• Group Charlotte’s Web craft: Web of Kindness

These activities will work best if you have already read the novel or seen the movie.
