In this class we will learn how to move all of the pieces, explore checkmating strategies and patterns, study opening principles, and drawing techniques. Each week we will dive into a lesson, followed by guided play to help reinforce the material covered in class. Returning students will be introduced to tactical ideas (pins, forks, discover attack, removing the defender, x-rays) and middlegame planning. At the end of the semester prizes will be awarded to each student to showcase their individual growth.
All Students will be provided with a basic ChessKid Account
The semester will run for 10 weeks on Wednesdays from 3:45-4:35
Dates: September 10th - December 3rd (No Class: 9/24, 10/1, 11/26)
