Doing a presentation about SpeedCubing

[Jacck]

i thought it was a class thing.
maybe you can call people up to do some algoritms on the cube

Nice idea. You could tell somenone (his or her eyes closed) to do 180° up-face, 180° down-face, 180° left-face, 180° right-face, 180° front-face, 180° backdown-face: he or she would have done the checkerboard blind!

Good luck - and be a star!

The one time I have had an opportunity to do something like that I solved a few twisty puzzles, I then talked about cubing competitions, I then did a walkthrough solve on a giant cube, at the end I asked for someone who knew how to solve a cube to come up and solve the cube under the bucket, unfortunately for him though, I had removed the core!

Okay, the presentation went pretty well. I had some kids scramble the cubes for me and watch how fast I could solve them, and they were really impressed. Then I let them play with the cubes, and they went crazy. I told them that they shouldn't twist corners, and they listened to me, which is good. A few kids were pretty interested in cubing, so I taught them how to use a timer and what lube was.

Overall they were amazed by the cubes and enjoyed playing with them, but they were a little bit too young and I don't think they'll end up competing. I still introduced them all to cubing though, and they liked it!

fantastic! how long did the presentation last, and what direction did you take it in? a more informative route or the more q and a route? great job bro, more cubers = a better world!

It was around an hour, and it was more of them asking questions and just playing with cubes.

That's probably all it needs to be for kids their age. It seems like you did a good job.
