—————
Rubik’s Cube Notation of Turns
R = clockwise turn of the Right side.
R’ = counterclockwise turn.
L = clockwise turn of the Left side.
L’ = counterclockwise turn.
U = clockwise turn of the Up or Top side.
U’ = counterclockwise turn.
D = clockwise turn of the Down or Bottom side.
D’ = counter clockwise turn.
B = clockwise turn of the Back side while facing it.
B’ = counterclockwise turn. * Remember CW & CCW is as if facing that side
Little Fish: (R U R’ U R U2 R’)
Big Fish: (R U’2 R’ U’ R U’ R’)
Double Fish: (R U R’ U R U2 R’) (R U R’ U R U2 R’)
PLL Corners (BAR): (x R’ U R’ D2 R U’ R’ D2 R2 x’)
*Note some of these are not conventional Rubik’s algorithms because we modified them or made up our own for simplicity and ease of memorization. They are not the fastest or most efficient but we believe them to be the simplest. (See parts 2 & 3: Solve Rubik’s Intermediate Method / Advanced Method for faster methods once proficient at this beginner method to solve 2x2 cube)
Insert First Layer Corner
White sticker on Right: R U R’
White sticker on Left: L’ U’ L
(Slap the White side)
Last Layer Corners (BAR)
Put two solved corners to back
x R’ U R’ D2 R U’ R’ D2 R2 x’
or if no solved corners do it twice
