When all of a sudden a knock on the door? He peeked through a hole in the wood It was Jerry! He was panting! He knocked again Phil decided to open the door, as he did, Phil said come in Je- he was interrupted by Jerry, who exclaimed The eggs! They re gone! Phil and Jerry ran from bush to tree to rock searching under over and in practically everywhere! And to their surprise no eggs!!! And then, over here! Tracks! The animal was limping. They headed east! shouted Phil with confusion and pride in his voice. Phil headed over to him. When he found the tracks they were the tracks of a BUNNY!!! Had they been bad to the Easter bunny??? Or Had someone stolen them-no-maybe-probably-no-or yes. They went to tell others there theory but they just turned their backs :{ even their best buddies and bro s Not friends any more HA they decided to go investigate themselves 9

You need to start with your cube in the solved position to make a checkerboard pattern. Also known as a chessboard, your Rubik s cube will have a checkered pattern on each side when you are done. 2. Turn the sides. Begin by looking at the green side of your cube. Turn the right side of the cube two clicks forward. The three green squares should end up on the opposite side of the cube. Then, still facing the green side take the left side of the cube and turn it two clicks forward as well. 3. Turn the top and bottom. Keep the green center cube facing you. Then, turn the top row clockwise by 180 degrees (two clicks). Turn the bottom row 180 degrees as well. 4. Make your final spins. With the green center block still facing you, turn the front face of your cube by 180 degrees (two clicks), as if you are turning a dial. Turn the back side of your cube by 180 degrees as well. You ve now created a checkerboard on all sides of your cube. 10
