Description:
The 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.
