Secret Codes for Reading!

We have been learning about codes as a reading activity, it is cool, creative and fun.
We have been learning about different types of secret codes. Morse code, number codes, cipher wheels and the nato phonetic alphabet - we have been doing it in and out of class. It is our fun current reading activity.
Number codes are probably the easiest to do - then the hardest is the morse code.
We got into smaller groups and we read the 4 pieces of paper out of the book The Dangerous Book for Boys, and to practice the codes in our little notebooks. We got to write our name in three different ways. The cipher wheel was to hard because we couldn't understand it. It was so much fun!
