I am passionate about learning that is tailored to children's interests and gives lots of opportunity for children to be creative and critical thinkers. I think it's important that learning materials cater to a variety of learning styles and I try to make my resources have real-world applications whenever possible. These resources will not only engage your learners, but they'll save you time, so that you can focus on doing what you do best.

Have some fun this Halloween with this hands-on 3D haunted house model. Your students will love making their own haunted house, adding their own details to make the house unique.
This pack includes options for a single-level house made up of three rooms and a roof, or a two level house which has six rooms. The model is put together by making rooms and gluing them together, so students could make just one or two rooms, or they could make all six.
The haunted house can be made using paper or light card. White glue is the easiest to work with for this project, and tape can be used if needed.
What’s included?
Instructions
4 outline pages for a one-level house
6 outline pages for a two-level house

Photo examples
U.S and U.K versions
