Dino-mite Cryptograms

Dig up dino-themed jokes in this delightful worksheet! Students will be given a cryptographic code that shows what symbol each letter of the alphabet corresponds to. Learners will use this code to decode each of the five jokes, replacing each symbol with its corresponding letter. 

This worksheet was designed for fourth and fifth graders, challenging their critical thinking and pattern recognition skills—both vital for code-breaking (and plenty of other subjects)! Try giving this activity to students who finish their work early or who need a break from regular class.
