Chess, when taught properly, can greatly improve a child's problem-solving skills, concentration, confidence, and critical thinking. Chess by the Slice, teaches the fundamentals of this wonderful game of strategy, but doesn't stop there. We go beyond the basic knowledge of "Piece Mover" as children learn how to play and think like a "Chess Player" in a fun and engaging way. Curriculum-based; CBTS was developed with children in mind. Age-appropriate teaching techniques such as "differentials" and "scaffolding" allow children to learn and grow in a fun environment and ...at their own pace. With a focus on character development, CBTS emphasizes the importance of respect and sportsmanship during competition. In this session of Cardinal University, we will review the rules and principles of the "Opening". We will immediately move into exploring the Middle Game: principles, strategy and tactics. New to chess? No problem, we will have your Cardinal playing before the four weeks are up. The goal is simple....have fun and learn along the way.
