Bring spooky flair to practical math! This 10-page, black-and-white “Classroom Startup: Haunted School Makeover” pack turns room setup into real-world problem solving—area & perimeter, budgeting with percents, energy use, scheduling, measurement, and data displays. Each letter-size worksheet includes one line-art illustration prompt and 10 accurate questions, culminating in a final makeover plan that blends space, cost, and time.

What’s Included:

Worksheet 1: Haunted Classroom Floor Plan
Skills: Area & perimeter, unit conversion, percent of a whole
Task: Compute room area/perimeter, reserve walkway space, fit desks, convert ft²→m², and justify safety planning

Worksheet 2: Haunted Furniture Budget
Skills: Totals, percent increase, bar graph, linear cost model
Task: Price desks/chairs/posters, apply a 10% increase, compare to $1,000 budget, and write C=35d+15c+8p

Worksheet 3: Haunted Lighting & Electricity
Skills: Rates & unit conversion (W↔kWh), percent savings, table of values
Task: Determine bulbs needed, daily/monthly cost at $0.15/kWh, compare 10 W vs 8 W, and suggest energy savings

Worksheet 4: Haunted Event Schedule
Skills: Time calculations, percents, pie chart/number line modeling
Task: Sum durations, compute % of a block, insert breaks, shorten by 20%, graph schedule, and discuss balance

Worksheet 5: Haunted Decoration Data
Skills: Totals, fractions/percents, bar & circle graphs, ratios
Task: Analyze counts (balloons/webs/bats), update after changes, find costs/averages, and write decorative ratios

Worksheet 6: Haunted Food Stand Budget
Skills: Proportions, unit rates, totals, percent discount
Task: Scale servings to 30 students, total category costs, per-student cost, apply 10% discount, and compare to budget

Worksheet 7: Haunted Hallway Measurement
Skills: Area/perimeter, spacing/intervals, scale drawing, unit conversion
Task: Plan poster spacing, compute perimeter/costs, convert m→cm, adjust for exit clearances, and estimate coverage %

Worksheet 8: Haunted Budget Percent Problems
Skills: Percent spent/increase/decrease, revenue & profit, double-bar graph
Task: Track spending vs budget, increase/decrease costs, model ticket revenue, compute and assess profit %

Worksheet 9: Haunted Role Assignments
Skills: Ratios, fractions/percents, probability, pie chart
Task: Allocate roles (zombie/witch/ghost), update with new students, find probabilities, and argue for equitable roles

Worksheet 10: Final Haunted Makeover Challenge
Skills: Integrated modeling—area, budgeting, percents, data displays, scheduling
Task: Combine category costs, check $500 cap, compute floor-space usage & remaining %, graph costs, apply sponsorship %, build a short timeline, and justify the final plan
