About this program

As school academics in a game- and leadership training model- playing chess and being smart are interconnected. There's a strong correlation between chess and academic achievement including math, spatial analysis and non-verbal reasoning ability. Donning a "commander" self-image, kids get trained in life-skills goal setting: checkmate! Open to kids aged 5-13 years old; anyone new or with limited knowledge of chess-art basics. Free chess folder for new students.
