Students now could also work in the opposite direction - to figure out cube roots. At first, when I put up the pair of numbers with an "in" of 64 and an "out" of 4, they were able to say, "Four is the number of little cubes on a side of a cube that has sixty-four Unifix cubes in all" or "Four times four times four is sixty-four." They were taught that four is called the cube root of sixty-four, since they had some previous understanding of square roots.
