WHAT | HOW LONG | MATERIALS | |
BRIDGE | Look at this thing! Don't you wish you could solve it? Impress the ladies with your rubik's skills! | 30 seconds | Rubik's Cubes |
LEARNING OBJECTIVES | Students will be able to solve a rubiks cube (hopefully). | ||
TEACHING OBJECTIVES | Get everyone to break down the cube into a step-by-step process, rather than a daunting whole. | ||
PRE TEST | Have you ever solved a cube before? Do you know the vocabulary of the cube? | 30 seconds | |
PARTICIPATORY LEARNING | Students will follow my lead through the many steps of solving the cube. They will also learn to translate written cube notation into movements. | 8 minutes | |
POST TEST | Students will attempt to solve the cube independently and fail because it can't be learned in 10 minutes. But maybe they'll take it home and try again. | 1 minute allotted during lesson. Really, it'll take them much longer. | |
SUMMARY | There will be no summary because they'll still be working on it when class ends. Cubing is never finished. Even when you solve it, you just scramble it up again and try to do it faster. |
