Description
Greetings! This listing features a fun, accurate, and thorough three-page cryptogram puzzle about sedimentary rocks. A cryptogram is a type of puzzle with an encrypted text. In this cryptogram, students will decipher a number code to reveal the letters to form the summary statement text about sedimentary rock.
The header on every student page has a horizontal letter-number assignment table for reference. Students will start the activity knowing the number assignments for ten letters and will eventually discover the number assignments for the remaining letters.
The entire message appears as a series of blank lines grouped into what will become words. The summative message covers the subclassifications, alternative names, key characteristics, and the formation processes of the various sedimentary rocks.
I assign this fun activity to my seventh-grade earth science students. It takes them approximately ninety minutes to complete this assignment. This activity could also be used as a fun reinforcement activity in a high school earth science course, too.
This document will become editable upon conversion to Microsoft Word using Adobe Acrobat. It includes a complete answer key. Another bonus about this activity is that grading it is SUPER EASY!
