Activity – code breakers.
Bottom group are working with 4 letter words with the pattern –an/ag, other 3 groups use the ----le ending.
Chn to match the symbols spellings of their list to the actual word – can they make the cipher? (Their symbols list is in alphabetical order.)
Answer (cipher)
a / b / c / d / e / f / g / h / i / j / k / l / m / n / o / p / q / r / s / t / u / v / w / x / y / z / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
The symbols are just ‘stars’ font. If you don’t get stars change the font of the symbols to windings or one of the other symbol fonts.
Chn can work in pairs or individually. Good for making them think about likely letter combinations.
