We did a little school work. Then we did a lot of clean up work.
"We worked as a team to decorate our classroom, so we're going to work as a team to clean it up for summer," said Sister Patrice.
Then we took the ponies down and put them away. They were tired. They ran all year since August!
Maza, Avory, Itancan, and Robert also did the 2x2 cube! They got a certificate for that, too.
Three of us liked the Rubik's Cube so much we got our own. Avory even got a professional speed cube that is super smooth and fast. He plans to get faster than his current 1 minute record by practicing new algorithms during the summer.
We all agreed: The Rubik's Cube challenge was scary when we found out about it in August. We all were worried we couldn't do it! If we didn't do it by the end of the year, we would fail math!
Sister Patrice encouraged us and also she told us solving a Rubik's Cube is like adult life. It is hard, but you can do it. We all did it. At the end of the year, we all felt very happy with how hard we worked to learn how to do it. We felt successful because we did a hard thing and learned about patience. Five of us even mentioned our cube challenge in our final presentation!
