Student Component: 
The​ CryptoClub​ Student Cipher Handbook is the centerpiece of the CryptoClub curriculum. It is a student reference and workbook that is recommended for use in informal learning environments such as after-school and enrichment programs. It introduces ciphers in a way that encourages problem-solving and reasoning and provides engaging messages to encrypt, decrypt and crack. The​​ Student Cipher Handbook can be used with whole-class instruction or with self-paced work in small groups.

 

Teacher Components: 

The CryptoClub​ Leader Manual accompanies the CryptoClub​ Student Cipher Handbook and helps teachers lead a CryptoClub program. It provides suggestions for teaching, along with an answer key, and discusses connections to middle-grade mathematics. It also describes games and activities that provide students with additional practice in an engaging, informal way.​

The teacher eBook and other online resources are included with the Leader Manual and are available through our digital platform, Flourish.
