Rubik's Cube Challenge

Help me give my students hands-on training in solving one of life's greatest challenges -- the Rubik's Cube! In addition, they'll learn spatial reasoning, probability, and combinatorics!

My Project

Help my students master one of life's greatest challenges -- the Rubik's Cube! Combining spatial reasoning, combinatorics, and probability theory, the Rubik's Cube is the ultimate challenge for my 6th graders. They won't be winning any speed challenges with this technique, but they will learn all about the Cube and its history, AND have an amazing skill they can show their families at home!

My students are in a Title I school in an urban metropolis in the northeastern United States of America.

Will you help them rise to the challenge?

Mr. Savino Intermediate School 381 Grades 6-8
