Week 1Lesson 1Completing Centers-Understand process of how to hold and move pieces on the Big Cube's to solve centers. -Solve first 4 centers -How to solve last 2 centersWeek 2Lesson 2Completing Edges-Understand process of how to hold and move pieces on the Big Cube's to solve edges. - Solve edges - Last edgesWeek 3Lesson 3Last edges and parody to complete and solve the cube.-Solve last two edges in parody -Complete/solve the Cube -Question and answer session about their cube. - Tip and trick to maximize move and not separate bars while solving other parts of the cube.
The students will learn how to solve any of the BIG Rubik's Cube 5 x 5 - 21 x 21. Must have the Cube you are learning. NO CABIN FIBER cubes (black centers). Hard to see the cube virtually.
Mr. Michael is able to solve over 30 different cube styles and has a Rubik's Cube Club which is STEAM accredited.
