**New introductory level group for the Spring 2024 session. Please note that the classes are initially scheduled for the Winter session (January-March) with the possibility of extending through June ** Our Chess for Beginners course is designed to teach chess to children who have no or limited prior knowledge of the game. Our chess classes for beginners introduce children to the world of chess through storytelling, games, and interactive activities. Students are introduced to the basic history of chess and learn piece names, value, movement, and capture, good trades vs. bad trades, as well as board notation and setup. The concepts of check, checkmate, stalemate, and castling will follow. Students will learn the key principles of the chess game as well as basic tactics and strategies. They will be introduced to the beginner-level openings. Equally important, children learn such critical skills as patience, persistence, logic, and reasoning skills. Classes for younger students are taught in an interactive and playful form. Part of the class is board demonstrations and part is practical interaction (playing chess). The complete Beginners course consists of 3 trimesters (Beginners I, II, and III) and is typically completed within one school year (approximately 32-34 lessons). After this course, students are ready for more advanced tactics and strategies!
