Not exactly sure what you mean by a "spanner". A spanning tree, perhaps? But then, I can't just specify one - it would depend on the graph.
 
Are you after an algorithm for finding a spanning tree, perhaps?

Possibly:
A tree t spanner of a graph G is a spanning tree of G in which the distance between every pair of vertices is at most t times their distance in G.
 
But if he is just looking for a tree spanner then maybe a monkey wrench would do.   Wink
