Worksheet Description

This Picture Titles worksheet is a deciphering activity where each letter in the title of the artwork has been substituted with a random letter or number. The task for the student is to decode the title by figuring out which symbols correspond to which letters in the alphabet. Two instances of the letter ‘E’ have been provided as clues to aid in the decryption. Using these clues and their knowledge of common letter patterns in English, students must complete the puzzle to determine the artwork’s title.

The worksheet is designed to engage students in critical thinking and pattern recognition by decoding a cryptogram. It teaches them the basics of substitution ciphers, a form of secret writing, where they must use the provided ‘E’s to crack the code. This exercise not only improves their problem-solving and linguistic skills but also adds an element of art appreciation. Through this activity, students practice their spelling and deduction abilities in a fun and educational manner.
