My Project

I have three classrooms of gifted students who are always on the lookout for the next challenge. We love everything from Rubics cubes to chess and even building Rube Goldberg machines, and we're ready to give our noodles a new workout.

Soma Cube Puzzles would be an awesome addition to our Puzzle-Mania Fridays.

I intend to create multi-tiered group challenges with these innovative cubes. The students will have to figure out how to create unique shapes using specific blocks. The lesson will engage spatial reasoning, communication skills, and team building.
