Another age old secret code, a simple number subsititution.

“In a substitution cypher, one letter, number, or symbol represents a letter. In our case, one number represents one letter. A=1, B=2, C=3, and so on. You can choose any numbers in your code. Just be sure the person reading your message has the code and knows which number goes with which letter.”

“We learned that it is important to make the symbols and drawings we used to represent each letter quite simple, and easy to reproduce accurately. If you make them too complicated it will be impossible to write a coded message that someone else can decipher!”
