Success Chess summer camps focus on
nurturing the chess interests of our students with a strong
emphasis on good sportsmanship The camps feature a mix of
chess instruction, activities, and tournament practice - students
will learn new chess skills while having fun!
We will also provide a juice and snack during our break
mid-way through each class; no world champion made it to the
top on an empty stomach. :) Camps are divided into
three levels:
BEGINNER--This two week
course is designed to teach chess to children who have no
knowledge of the game. Instruction will start with the very
basics of piece movement and through interactive lectures,
activities, and playtime, students will learn the fundamentals
of the beginning, the middle and the end game.
INTERMEDIATE--This course is designed for students who already know the basics of how to play chess. Principles of tactics and strategy will be taught to prepare students for more rigorous competition. Time will also be spent leaning the rules of a tournament and becoming familiar with official competition. ADVANCED--This program is designed for students who have been playing chess in tournaments or have been playing chess for a number of years. Students will improve their critical thinking skills through analyzing their own games along with classic chess games. |
