Science Buddies: Making Patterns With Rubik's Cube

For Students 9th - 10th
This project challenges you to figure out how to make geometric patterns with Rubik's Cube. Leaving your cube in one of these positions makes it much more tempting to pick it up and 'fix' it. See if you can determine how different...
