With chess starting at our 5 schools again last week, (we have over 270 studentd signed up)  I found a few great new videos to help our beginners that are learning how to play  for the first time as well as others. 

12-31-22 update: We have over 290 signed up now.

1-4-23 update: We have over 310 signed up this year.......the most ever in the past 25 years!

At the (3)  K-6 schools, we have several dozen young beginners. Many of the videos below are PERFECT for them to learn chess.

Additional videos provide great lessons on core chess principles for advancing to whatever level the user is motivated to reach. 

Have fun and happy learning!

metmike: Go to that link and scroll down for more than 35 different videos/lessons. Your child can watch these and learn at their own pace.

Having a chess set at home is a great idea too.

I haven't played chess on the internet for many years and have not tested this site for doing that but feel extremely confident that it's an outstanding place for young people to play live games.....which is the best way to get better.

When I get the chance, I'll  do it myself and have comments/suggestions.

Learning to do notation.

They require students competing above 3rd grade to notate at many US Chess Federation rated tournaments, like the Scholastic Chess of Indiana tournaments in our state.

Each of the 64 squares on a chess board has an identity using its file(letter) and rank(number) 

Each piece, other than the pawn has a capital letter to identify it.

Learning from chess tutorials is extremely helpful to develop chess skills but the only way to apply the lessons is to play others and the best way to do that is at chess tournaments!
