THIS WEEK: First meeting of chess club went well. We learned how all the pieces move and the value of each piece.

We learned a general strategy for finding good moves: the more choices your piece has,  the more powerful it is. So move your pieces to where they have more choices.

We learned how to set up the board and how the squares are named. We also tried checkmating with just a queen and king and trying to avoid stalemate

NEXT WEEK we'll take a closer look at checkmate and stalemate. We'll also learn about castling.
