Halloween activities that combine math and crafts make learning fun! Create haunted houses to connect arrays and area models to multiplication equations and word problems. Promote conceptional understanding with this easy to differentiate project. Choose between one and two digit multiplication word problems and build area model windows for a haunted house.

Use this project as an introduction, practice or review of multiplication by representing problem situations using multiple models and equations.

Please click Preview to see details of print, digital and bonus digital (separate activity) versions.

This resource includes both a printable project version and a digital version for use in Google Classroom. The digital version uses the same word problems. Students build an area model and place the models as windows in a haunted house in Google slides.

**As a bonus digital craft activity I included a tutorial for students to design and create their own haunted house in Google slides while learning valuable tech skills!

Choose single digit or double digit multiplication word problems in a Halloween theme or monster theme (No mention of Halloween. Monsters are creating a haunted house for a monster party.)
