1st lesson

Today, Tony showed us the different positions on the chess board.
They are all numbered and lettered.
Each square has its own unique name.
This is important to study for future lessons.
Each piece was introduced and we learned how they move around the board.
Look at some of the websites in the sidebar to help you practice and revise pieces and their moves.

Tony gave homework to prepare for next week.
Place 3 white pawns at a5, b5 and c5.
Place 3 black pawns at a7, b7 and c7.
You must try to get the white pawns to rank (row) 8.
You may have to try a variety of combinations to get this.
It might help to have a small notebook or page and write down the steps you took.
Good luck!
