About Chess:
Chess is a board game and mental sport for two players. It is played on a square board of 8 rows and 8 columns, giving 64 squares of alternating colour, light and dark. Each player begins the game with 16 pieces that each move and capture other pieces on the board in a unique way: eight pawns, two knights, two bishops, two rooks, one queen and one king. One player controls the white pieces; the other player controls the black pieces. The object of the game is to achieve checkmate.

The Benefits of Learning Chess:

Chess education gives the child the joy of creativity, while also being an effective tool of their mental development.

* A child learns to think independently and make decisions. Even the simplest solution (which figure to make a move), which may result not so much the loss (the worst - loss) - teach the children independence and responsibility.

* While studying chess, the child learns to focus on one process. It produces perseverance.

* The child develops spatial imagination.

* The child has formed planning the action. Already in elementary school children face tasks that require that quality, but the guys do not. Learn to create a domestic plan of action should be in the preschool age. Then the children themselves learn to manage your time, think strategically and achieve goals.

* One of the most attractive possibilities of chess - a victory over an opponent. Through its sports component chess builds character: the desire to win makes the child engage in, and any error or defeat - this is only a new opportunity for development.

* Chess teaches creativity. Unlike many school subjects, in chess there are no ready answers to all questions. A child learns to relate mental processes with practical actions, creatively apply their knowledge in the classroom, look for nontrivial solutions and create beautiful combinations on the board.
