Cypher worksheet Maker Type 1

This has two main advantages. The task has two levels of skill verification. If students do not get an answer in the list, they know they made a mistake and can correct it immediately. If their solution produces nonsense, they also know they made a mistake. Students have an auxillary objective which can entertain while practicing a repetative exercise.

Once you are happy with your worksheet, go to file, print preview. Then print the file to a pdf. I hope to allow you to save the file to other formats later.
