Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Richard James, Chess for Schools: From simple strategy games to clubs and competitions is a great resource to help teachers encourage children to enjoy the benefits and challenges of the chess game Chess is a game of extraordinary excitement and beauty and all children should have the opportunity to experience it. Indeed, many claim that playing abstract strategy games such as chess provides a wide range of cognitive and social benefits- such as improvements in problem-solving ability and communication skills. However, Richard James argues that, because of the complexity of chess, most younger children would gain more benefit from simpler chess-based strategy games and incremental learning. In this practical handbook, Richard provides a wide range of games and puzzles based on these principles which are appropriate for primary schools and explains how teachers can identify children who would benefit from starting young. Richard also sets out how this approach can engage the whole community, including working with children with special needs, getting parents involved in learning and playing, and developing partnerships between primary and secondary schools. Chess for Schools shares the latest research into how children process information, combined with insights into international best practice in teaching chess to young children. The book demonstrates the transformative effect chess can have on older children, and how this can be promoted in secondary schools. Richard James offers valuable insights into the greater context of chess-playing, expressing how and why chess is a joy to so many worldwide andshares a series of resources and minigames for teachers to use with their learners. An ideal resource for primary and secondary school teachers wanting to introduce their pupils to chess.

Download or read book Mind Matter written by Phil Rosado and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book has a certain hook. That hook is not just how the game of chess is played but why. Chess is a challenging game mentally if it is approached correctly. I introduce the saying “Think before you move” which is more than hundreds of years old. It is accepted but at the same time the most misunderstood. I offer a snippet on the cover introducing the concept of Visual Spatial learning by welcoming them to Chess where visual spatial learning activates your metacognition thought process. That metacognition thought process is your thinking of theories that leads to a conclusion of a move so your move won’t be impulsive. So the book emphasizes the importance of visual spatial learning concept with the direct teaching of it with two pre-chess type games that displays it. Pawn Race for advancement using strategy based on thought process creating scenarios to win. Different goal of checkmate but similar and necessary means. Faceoff , exchange of material is the object of the game. Very similar means that are in the chess game that are unfamiliar and usually misunderstood. These games helps clarify that. Both are very much needed prerequisites to the actual game of chess.

Book Synopsis Chess in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age by : Daniel E. O'Sullivan
Download or read book Chess in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age written by Daniel E. O'Sullivan and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-07-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The game of chess was wildly popular in the Middle Ages, so much so that it became an important thought paradigm for thinkers and writers who utilized its vocabulary and imagery for commentaries on war, politics, love, and the social order. In this collection of essays, scholars investigate chess texts from numerous traditions – English, French, German, Latin, Persian, Spanish, Swedish, and Catalan – and argue that knowledge of chess is essential to understanding medieval culture. Such knowledge, however, cannot rely on the modern game, for today’s rules were not developed until the late fifteenth century. Only through familiarity with earlier incarnations of the game can one fully appreciate the full import of chess to medieval society. The careful scholarship contained in this volume provides not only insight into the significance of chess in medieval European culture but also opens up avenues of inquiry for future work in this rich field.
