How can Cube Buddy help introduce cubing to my school?
If you can manage to get your hands on 20-30 good quality cubes (see FAQ for some pointers), getting around to each child and spending enough time with them to help them progress can be challenging. Here’s how Cube Buddy can help:
– The Instruction Sheets: Cube Buddy Instruction Sheets are free to download and follow a similar format to the app, breaking down the solve to one stage per page and providing diagrams and written instructions to assist students with the solve. These can be printed out and distributed to the class so each student has a copy of written reference material.
– The App: The Cube Buddy application is free, requires no sign-up and runs no ads. It works on any device that can run a modern web browser. The app breaks down the solve stage-by-stage, using a combination of diagrams, written instructions and short how-to videos targeted at each aspect of the solve and can be used to provide more detailed instruction to those who need it most.
