Given the perspective that Mathematics should be taught in order to produce meaning through situations that refer to the student's reality, this article proposes the insertion of cryptography in the 9th year of Elementary School through a workshop, dealing with an excerpt from one of the authors' course conclusion work. The proposed workshop aims at a brief recapitulation about the history and functioning of cryptography and the approach of a practicable cryptographic method in Basic Education, using affine functions. For the exposition of the same, the article makes use of qualitative research, of bibliographic nature, with the objective of supporting the application and development of the workshop in the classroom by the teacher. Thus, the history of cryptography will be briefly presented, as well as its main concepts and some methods, followed by the presentation of the workshop through the methodology used for its organization, which consists of three distinct moments: historical approach, ilustration/ review of contet and practice.
