Due Date: October 29th, 2010

- Select a mystery novel to read and have your teacher approve the book.
- After reading your mystery book, design a "haunted house" on a sheet of poster board. Use the back of the sheet that was sent home ONLY as a guide.
- Slit doors and windows to reveal interesting facts about your book.
- Glue paper to the back of each opening and record requested information (see below).
- You may use markers, crayons, or paint to add color. Decorate your house with bats, skeletons, jack-o-lanters, ghosts, etc. in order to make it as spooky as possible.
