 LESSONS

We went over the fun sheet on discovered attacks and double checks,

Today we looked at how to find checkmates. Examine the board carefully to se where the opponents king can move. Then see if you can check the king while also guarding any escape squares.

TOURNAMENT

Next tournament is at Plymouth Middle School. Section are K-2, 3rd-5th, 6th - 8th

Then Dec 3 at Nicollet (a little closer to home) for a grade level tournament.

PROBLEM

See if you can find the one move which is NOT checkmate.
