We’re preparing for the Regional Rubik’s Cube Competition! Nuckols Farm will have a team of 8 students and 2 alternates to take to the Competition. If your child is interested in being a part of the Nuckols Farm team, we will have the following practices from 2:15-3:00 in Mr. Wasserman’s classroom A-3:
Monday, Feb. 10 Wednesday, Feb. 12 Wednesday, Feb. 17
Students may come to 1 or all 3 of these practices in order to be timed, to practice, and to have fun! Bring a cube, but it must be an official Rubik’s cube with the Rubik’s logo. No speed cubes allowed.
The 10 fastest students, as timed by Feb. 21, will be on the the NFE Team! Those selected will be invited to the Team Practices, from 2:15- 3:00 on the following Fridays: February 28 and March 6.
The students on the NFE Teams must be able to attend the Regional Competition on Wednesday, March 11 from 4:00-6:30 at Holman Middle School.

The Results are In…
We had great success at the Rubik’s Cube Regional Competition on March 23. We had 18 students competing in solo and team competitions. I am very proud of our Nuckols Farm cubers! Our 2 teams finished 5th & 8th out of 13 teams. Both teams surpassed all previous NFE team records! I’ve enjoyed working with the group and I hope to see the 3rd and 4th graders on next year’s teams.
