Australian Nylon Feet

chess computer course

-
For my course time on Wednesday I had an idea that I could achieve only partial. Presumably, the children were too young. It was the course with students from second grade. My idea was to learn to play chess with the children. This one needs a computer. But it is possible and an interesting alternative, Internet and PC with included here.

is first necessary to employ it with the rules. So that everyone can understand the information at his workplace, may the students a picture with the image of a chessboard procure, including figures. For this purpose, can simply enter the combination "pawns" in the Google image search. A suitable graphic (with coordinates) can be found on the first page of results. It is copied into a Word document or saved and then via the "Insert" "graphics" are inserted. Now let discuss the rules slightly. For the students, the task for each figure, corresponding rules to write down.

Once ground rules are understood can best learn everything else right in the game. This offers a chess version on playit.ch. The advantage: Wrong moves are impossible, since they are the computer will not be accepted. The Web has also often simple chess programs available as freeware for free download. So it is possible to let students play against each other.
