CHESS-ED
Chess-Ed is excited to be able to continue providing your chess program. In providing this unique, exciting, and dynamic chess instruction, our goal is to always lift each student to a new level of expertise. Each week students will enjoy an engaging lesson with supervised time to play with classmates. Students will grow their knowledge of the game – from the basics through opening theory, middle game tactics, and end game combinations. Students’ vocabulary and math skills will continue to advance.
Studies confirm that the student who plays chess does better academically. Playing chess increases IQ performance, improves memory, uses analytical and critical thinking skills, and teaches problem-solving, responsibility, sportsmanship, social skills, and more.
