Description:
The CIC Chess to Life™ Extracurricular School Program
At lunchtime or after classes, students flock to our extracurricular chess clubs for camaraderie and intellectual challenge. They have a blast playing with their friends and learning the ways of chess, all while developing critical life skills.
At a CIC chess club, life skills like Communication, Critical Thinking, and Self-Management are purposefully woven into the fabric of the curriculum. Students reflect upon and discuss their own life experiences within these areas, then apply their new wisdom directly to the chess lessons.
We offer clubs at two levels: Primary, and Junior.
Primary students are in grades one through three. They learn the basics of chess, and a love of chess, through fun, interactive games that are developmentally targeted to this age range.
CIC extracurricular clubs offer your child, regardless of age or ability level, a place to find new friends, discover a new hobby, and learn critical life skills. Click the button below to find your school and register!
If your school doesn’t currently run a CIC Chess to Life™ club, ask your school administrator to contact us about starting up.
