Description:
The Primary Extracurricular Club is a fun, interactive class for children who are eager to learn about the game of chess! They will play games and solve puzzles to learn piece names, their movements, rules, and how to checkmate. Woven into those activities are life lessons on Creativity, Participation, and Respect for Others. Made specially for grade ones, twos, and threes! The Junior Extracurricular Club boasts an intermediate chess curriculum for students who already possess a basic knowledge of the game. Here, students delve into the fundamentals of tactics and strategy. Life skills like Problem Solving, Negotiation, and Resilience help bring chess to life as they are integrated throughout the lessons. Made specially for grades three through six!
These clubs are available in three different sessions: September to December, January to March, and April to June. Dates and times vary school-to-school.
The Junior Extracurricular Club is available as four separate, 8-class terms spanning the length of one school year. This year-length curriculum can be joined at any time, but it is best experienced as a complete, year-length course. Dates and times vary school-to-school.
