I am not a really big fan of science fiction stories or movies. If you want to treat me, give me a good cowboy book or movie, a real life story or a true story. This movie is about a true story of a Chess Champion. African true stories, and from some other places in the world, are inspiring, as the struggle to reach for dreams is so much more intense due to so many problems and issues people from developing countries need to deal with on a daily basis -things people from developed countries take for granted. Today, some of those problems and issues are because of <em>certain countries in the West</em> who tried to gain, only for themselves and who put leaders in place just to shush their conscience. They think they get things right, but they are totally wrong. I’m glad that there is, once again, a movie about chess, to show the power of this game in real life and to highlight the struggles of some people in this world.</span></h2> <blockquote> <h2><strong><span style="color:#008000;">True Story of a Chess Champion</span></strong><br /> <strong><span style="color:#008000;"> Walt Disney Pictures has revealed the colourful first Queen of Katwe poster. The true story of an inspiring chess champion stars Golden Globe nominee David Oyelowo (Selma, Interstellar), Oscar winner and Tony Award nominee Lupita Nyong’o (12 Years a Slave, Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and newcomer Madina Nalwanga.</span></strong></h2> </blockquote> <h2><strong><span style="color:#008000;">For 10-year-old Phiona Mutesi (Nalwanga) and her family, life in the impoverished slum of Katwe in Kampala, Uganda, is a constant struggle. Her mother, Harriet (Nyong’o), is fiercely determined to take care of her family and works tirelessly selling vegetables in the market to make sure her children are fed and have a roof over their heads. When Phiona meets Robert Katende (Oyelowo), a soccer player turned missionary who teaches local children chess, she is captivated. Chess requires a good deal of concentration, strategic thinking and risk taking, all skills which are applicable in everyday life, and Katende hopes to empower youth with the game.</span></strong><br /> <strong><span style="color:#008000;"> Phiona is impressed by the intelligence and wit the game requires and immediately shows potential. Recognizing Phiona’s natural aptitude for chess and the fighting spirit she’s inherited from her mother, Katende begins to mentor her, but Harriet is reluctant to provide any encouragement, not wanting to see her daughter disappointed. As Phiona begins to succeed in local chess competitions, Katende teaches her to read and write in order to pursue schooling. She quickly advances through the ranks in tournaments, but breaks away from her family to focus on her own life.

Ricardo’s future as a chess prodigy is threatened by his growing interest in the 26 whose local leader is grooming him as a potential member. Unknown to Ricardo, the father he’s never known has been released from prison. Farakhan, a reformed general in the 28, is back in his old neighbourhood, an intruder in 26 territory. In a story that is at times raw and violent at other times touching and true. FOUR CORNERS is a gripping drama set against the backdrop of a gang war in Cape Town which has been raging for a 100 years; a little known fact. </span></h2> </blockquote> <p><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">(Quote from youtube)</span></strong></p> <span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cM4Iwz8xkzI?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span> <h2><span style="color:#800080;">By watching this trailer, I don’t think I ever want to be in an area where any gangs are roaming and scavenging for anyone they can manipulate to their needs. It must be scary and you must feel intimidating to live in places like these, but the same time you feel sorry to know that there are people who only know one life and that’s this kind of life.

It’s a very interesting article and you can easily copy the images to read it later. I want to quote from the first paragraph<strong><em>….”The year is 1909, the man is Jose Raul Capablanca of Cuba, and the result is a whitewash 28 wins….” and in the second paragraph..”I see only one move ahead,” Capablanca is said to have answered, “but it is always the correct move.”</em></strong> phew… I sometimes have only one move to make! and the move I know it’s the right move…but in most games you have to observe the board closely to see what your “enemy” is about to do and what evil plans he’s got up his sleeve! and that means you have to see about 2 or more moves ahead…as chess player myself, I can quote a lot from this article and comment on it…but I’m no master/grandmaster! I think every person has a different view/opinion….do spend some time to read it, it’s definitely worth spending the time on it!

at Foros and yet another elite Grandmaster crumbles in the face of Magnus Carlsen’s relentless pressure. Alexei Shirov is a formidable player and has himself come close to the World Championship crown, but today he became Carlsen’s latest victim.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Shirov answered 1.d4 with the Slav defence and Magnus chose the popular ‘Moscow’ variation in reply. A balanced opening developed into an even middlegame, but as in previous games, Magnus kept creating tricky problems for his opponent to solve and soon Shirov fell into time trouble as he sought to find the best answers.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">It was on the 61st move that Shirov finally cracked, allowing Magnus to catch his King in a mating net.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Elsewhere on another exciting day, the closest challenger to Magnus failed to keep up the pace as Sergey Karjakin lost with the Black pieces against Andrei Volokitin. The other decisive games saw Nisipeanu put Van Wely to the sword in a Najdorf Sicilian and Svidler employed his favourite Grunfeld defence to good effect against Onischuk.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Vassily Ivanchuk fought hard against Dmitry Jakovenko, but an extra pawn in a Knight ending was not enough and the game ended all-square after 72 moves.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Magnus Carlsen now leads by a clear 1.5 points with a very impressive score of 4.5/5. If the world rankings were published </span><a rel="nofollow" href="http://chess.liverating.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#800080;">today</span></a><span style="color:#800080;"> then

If you can’t play it, it’s very easy to learn the basics. Well, the basics are the pieces, names and how they move. Also, make sure you know whenever you play chess, that there’s always a white square on your right hand side! Otherwise, your board is set up wrongly! And, the white pieces go on the rows marked 1 and 2, black on 7 and 8. In some movies, you will find the board set up wrongly and even the Queen not on the colour she should be! White Queen goes to the white square …. so the Queen goes to “her” colour. I’ve found an interesting article why they – directors – like chess in the movies! So, have you got any plans to be an actor? Then…learn to play chess…or at least know the basics…. lol!</font><br /> <font color="#800080">Click </font><a href="http://www.chessbase.com/games/2004/bond.htm?expr=$gNav1Url!=&userimagepref=off"><b><font color="#800080"></font><font color="#ff0000">HERE</font> to play through </b></a><font color="#800080">the game from the movie: <strong>From Russia with love!</strong></font></p> <p><font color="#008000"></font></p> <p><font color="#008000">By Finlo Rohrer<br /> BBC News Magazine</font></p> <p><!-- E IBYL --><font color="#008000">The late Ingmar Bergman’s film the Seventh Seal helped cement his reputation as a cerebral director, and might explain why chess is such an enduring theme for film makers.</font></p> <p><font color="#008000">In the Seventh Seal a Swedish knight returns from the crusades to find his home country ravaged by tragedy and is soon locked in a game of chess with death.</font></p> <p><font color="#008000">Without giving much away, it’s a fairly intense game.</font></p> <p><font color="#008000">Bergman’s arthouse favourite is perhaps the most notorious example of chess on celluloid, but there are hundreds and hundreds of others. From the brainiest to the schlockiest, one of the movie world’s favourite devices is chess.</font></p> <p><!-- S IIMA --><font color="#008000"><img border="0" vspace="4" align="left" width="203" src="https://i0.wp.com/newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/44030000/jpg/_44030571_bogart_getty_203.jpg" hspace="4" alt="Humphrey Bogart plays chess" height="152" /> <!-- E IIMA --></font></p> <p><font color="#008000">And among the chess-playing fraternity there’s a whole subculture of “chess in the movies” discussion, with a number of dedicated websites, and Bob Basalla’s book Chess in the Movies, providing exhaustive lists stretching up to 2,000 titles.</font></p> <p><font color="#008000">Perhaps the second best known chess scene is in the Thomas Crown Affair, where Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway enjoy a romantically-charged game.</font></p> <p><font color="#008000"><span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mFYiwA8waDA?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span><br /> Satyajit Ray’s the Chess Players is another arthouse classic, while 2000’s Luzhin Defence had a grandmaster as its central character. </font></p> <p><font color="#008000">But for many chess aficionados, the best example of the game has to be in the second James Bond film, From Russia With Love, where the Spectre agent Kronsteen ruthlessly beats the Canadian master McAdams<br /> Sometimes chess is in a movie because a star or director is a player. Humphrey Bogart was reputed to be at the top end of amateur players, and suggested a chess scene for Casablanca. And Stanley Kubrick was so taken with chess that it features in The Killing, Lolita and 2001 and alluded to the game in Paths of Glory. </font></p> <p><font color="#008000">“The best scenes are where there is some tension between the protagonists. Humphrey Bogart has a special place in my affections because he did love chess. The board was definitely the right way round in Casablanca,” Pein adds. </font></p> <p><font color="#008000">The chess authorities have tried to capitalise on the movies to recruit new players, such as when the game was heavily featured in a Harry Potter movie. </font></p> <p><font color="#008000">And the fans like most the movies – such as From Russia With Love – that at least attempt to use a real game. Blade Runner features a game based on Anderssen against Kieseritzky in London in 1851, known to some as the Immortal Game, and 1925’s Chess Fever which featured Cuban world champion Jose Raul Capablanca playing a champion. </font></p> <p><font color="#0000ff">Read more </font><a

won this game due to the Fide-rule that chess players should shake hands at the start of a game. He offered his hand <strong>twice </strong>to his opponent.

According to an article on the FIDE website:</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">“Any player who does not shake hands with the opponent (or greets the opponent in a normal social manner in accordance with the conventional rules of their society) before the game starts in a FIDE tournament or during a FIDE match (and does not do it after being asked to do so by the arbiter) or deliberately insults his/her opponent or the officials of the event, will immediately and finally lose the relevant game.”</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Chief Arbiter Thomas van Beekum was a witness when Cheparinov refused Short’s offer to shake hands twice and the Bulgarian’s game was declared a loss as a result.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">The Tournament Organization has received an official protest by Mr. Ivan Cheparinov regarding his loss against Mr. Nigel Short. The matter will be put forward to the Appeals Committee</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Click </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Nigel-Short/29315795093"

book. It was a book written by Cor Nortje in Afrikaans…”Skaak!” In the back of the book, there are the games of Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky. I used to play through those games to “teach” myself a bit more of the game. Nobody else in the family played chess! I got to like Bobby F and he was always – and will always be! – my favourite chess player! It’s very sad to know that he’s passed away, and as somebody said on the chess site… at the age of 64! A “good” number, as there are 64 squares on the board!! Bobby had an IQ of 187! A very gifted and talented player, for sure… What happened to him was really sad and even more sad that the American government “chased” him because of violating sanctions… that means that you don’t have the freedom to do what you love and what you are brilliant at! Sad….that is what politicians are good at…ruining other people’s lives! ..and sometimes with their “fantastic” ideas… even divide nations all over the world! </span></p> <blockquote><p><span style="color:#008000;">Fisher died in a Reykjavik, Iceland, hospital on Thursday of kidney failure after a long illness.</span></p></blockquote> <p><span style="color:#008000;">Born in Chicago and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., Fischer faced criminal charges in the United States for playing a 1992 rematch against Boris Spassky in Yugoslavia in defiance of international sanctions.</span></p> <p><img src="https://mykopop.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/voor.jpg?w=240&h=352" border="0" alt="" width="240" height="352" /></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">This chess book is written in Afrikaans and was my first chess book at the age of 11.

He is considered to be one of the most gifted chess players of all time and, despite his prolonged absence from competitive play, is still among the best known of all chess players.<br /> <br /> “Chess is war over the board.<br /> The object is to crush the opponent’s mind.” – Bobby Fischer </span></p> <p><span style="color:#0000ff;">“I am the best player in the world and I am here to prove it.” – Bobby Fischer.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">He dropped out of competitive chess and largely out of view, emerging occasionally to make erratic and often anti-Semitic comments.Fischer, whose mother was Jewish, once accused “the Jew-controlled U.S. government” of ruining his life.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">He fell into obscurity before resurfacing to win a 1992 exhibition rematch against Spassky on the Yugoslav resort island of Sveti Stefan in violation of sanctions imposed to punish then-President Slobodan Milosevic.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">A fierce critic of his homeland, Fischer became wanted in the United States for violating the sanctions.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Read here…</span><a href="http://uk.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20080118/tts-uk-chess-fischer-death-bed299d_5.html" target="_blank"><span style="color:#800080;">about Bobby’s death</span></a><span style="color:#800080;"> Read on </span><a href="http://www.chess.com/article/view/fischers-first-rated-tournament" target="_blank"><span style="color:#800080;">THIS LINK </span></a><span style="color:#800080;">about his first rated tournament.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;"><span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/F-vTSbWmlPs?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span><br /> NIGEL SHORT about Fischer:<br /> <span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zpyK4Kra3lE?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span></span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">“The United States is evil.

Fischer, 62, who grew up in New York, has dodged a U.S. arrest warrant since playing a chess match in Yugoslavia in 1992 in violation of U.S. sanctions.<br /> Read the rest of the article </span><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A60087-2005Mar23.html" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#800080;">HERE </span></strong></a><span style="color:#800080;">…</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Bobby as a 15 year old teenager….and America’s champ!<br /> <span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/t7JcwOJADf8?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span><span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2-9Ph0dQ5WY?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span><br /> <span class="embed-youtube" style="text-align:center; display: block;"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="500" height="282" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JvW2PvAREGc?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox"></iframe></span></span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Born in Chicago and raised in Brooklyn, Fischer was a U.S. chess champion at 14 and a grand master at 15. He beat Spassky in a series of games in Reykjavik to claim America’s first world chess championship in more than a century.But his reputation as a genius of chess soon was eclipsed by his idiosyncrasies.A few years after the Spassky match, he forfeited the title to another Soviet, Anatoly Karpov, when he refused to defend it.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Bobby Fischer, the reclusive American chess master who became a Cold War icon when he dethroned the Soviet Union’s Boris Spassky as world champion in 1972, has died. He was 64.<br /> Fischer died Thursday in a Reykjavik hospital, his spokesman, Gardar Sverrisson, said.

As with good hygiene and good manners, most parents strive to teach their children lessons on how to be good at handling money.“If you can teach your child the difference between needs and wants, how to budget and how to save, your child will know more than many adults,” according to Scott Reeves of Forbes. “But if you get it wrong, your child is likely to join the millions of Americans who rack up huge credit card debt and get stung each month by stiff interest payments.”<br /> In other words, no pressure.The lives of children who understand money, its value and how to handle it will be far easier than those of children who don’t.<br /> Here are 10 tips for teaching your kids about money, focusing on saving and investing money, so they will grow up and use it responsibly.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#008000;">– on the link at the bottom of the page, where the article can be found…point 3 says…</span></p> <p><span style="color:#008000;">3) Teach them critical thinking</span></p> <p><span style="color:#008000;">While not directly a lesson in money, kids who learn how to think critically will make better decisions when it comes to money because they will be able to consider the short, medium and long term effects of their decisions, as well as plan for contingencies.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#008000;">One great way to teach them how to plan, strategize and think critically is to teach them chess. Chess is a game in which cause and effect, concrete rules, analysis and planning for different scenarios are all crucial. Chess can also help kids hone their ability to recognize when to take risks and when to play it safe, which is a critical investment skill.</span></p> <p><span style="color:#008000;">A real life example of this can be found in the story of David MacEnulty, an English teacher who taught a group of inner-city, low-income students in the South Bronx how to play chess. These students went on to compete and win in chess competitions and their critical thinking skills put them on the path to success. The story was documented in the 2005 movie, Knights of the South Bronx</span></p> <p><a href="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/knights-of-the-bronx.jpg"><img data-attachment-id="6859" data-permalink="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/2007/12/30/teach-your-kids-chess-and-they-know-how-to-work-with-money/knights-of-the-bronx/" data-orig-file="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/knights-of-the-bronx.jpg" data-orig-size="332,421" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}" data-image-title="knights-of-the-bronx" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/knights-of-the-bronx.jpg?w=332" data-large-file="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/knights-of-the-bronx.jpg?w=332" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6859" title="knights-of-the-bronx" src="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/knights-of-the-bronx.jpg?w=500" alt="knights-of-the-bronx" /></a></p> <p><span style="color:#008080;"><strong>Knights of the South Bronx</strong> </span><br /> <img src="https://chessaleeinlondon.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/bronx.jpg?w=399&h=263" alt="bronx.jpg" width="399" height="263" /></p> <blockquote><p><span style="color:#0000ff;">The most captivating, entertaining chess movie since Searching for Bobby Fischer! You’ll be thrilled. It’s inspirational.A business man decides that he wants to teach school in the inner city and chooses a tough school in the South Bronx. He teaches the children how to play the game of chess, and along the way they learn a lot about life.Richard’s entire class is lifted out of nothingness and boredom to fight for life, success, and the thrill of achievement! He helps his entire class discover chess one day, much to the dismay of school authorities. Richard’s mind is torn as even his wife disapproves when he turns down a lucrative job offer to stay with low-paying job… “his kids” and his class. But Richard cannot be swayed from helping the kids find new hope in life. When Richard’s class is reaching new levels of achievement in their studies the tide is turned, his wife comes to his side, and his Knights of the South Bronx battle their way to winning championships and battling all signs of defeat… often from within their own minds and ranks – their classmates. But they encourage one another and overcome, inspired by the game of chess.</span></p></blockquote> <p><a title="Bookmark using any bookmark manager!" href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php"

2008</span></span></strong></p> <p><span style="color:#0000ff;">On this link- on my blog – you can follow her games of round 5 and round 6…against Yifan of China and see more pics of her too. <a

known of the existence of Alexandra before, I think there are so many Chess Grandmasters that we don’t know of, but I want to blog her, as she is a female player! and I think more should be done to attract girls to play chess. Too many girls are still thinking chess is a boy’s game. Why do you think that is? If you go to my chess links, you will find a link saying… “Tube Chess”…follow that link for some good movies about her playing chess, but also about other chess players!</span></p> <p><span style="color:#008000;">Alexandra Kosteniuk is the 10th woman in the world to have ever achieved the Grandmaster (men) title. She’s rated sixth woman in the world, and #1 woman in Russia. She has a FIDE ELO of 2515.<br /> <span style="color:#008000;">Alexandra had a great success at the annual New Year Blitz tournament organized by the Deputy Economy Minister Arkady Dvorkovich in Moscow. After qualifying in the semifinals, she won convincingly the final with 8 points out of 9 ahead of GM Najer –2635–7, GM Dlugy –2518– 6.5, GM Alekseev –2716– 6, GM Bareev –2653– 4.5, GM Vasiukov –2492–

<span class="blsp-spelling-error">Gryzlov</span> thinks that chess is most likely to be introduced into Russian schools curriculum. `In <span class="blsp-spelling-error">Kalmykia</span>, schools have chess in their programmes for more than 10 years and the results in other school subjects have improved. Kalmyk pupils win not only Russian championships but also world ones in other sports,` Mr. <span class="blsp-spelling-error">Gryzlov</span> said at the opening ceremony of the Russian Sport Forum. In Mr. <span class="blsp-spelling-error">Gryzlov</span>`s opinion chess develops not only pupils` logical thinking but their striving for victory which is very important for the Russian people.”</strong></span></em></div> <div><strong><em><span style="color:#ff6600;">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</span></em></strong></div> <div><strong><em><span style="color:#ff6600;"></span></em></strong></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;"><strong>Today, I said the following to Basil…(he’s on the course with me)..that chess should be a game in all schools, because of the following…</strong></span></em></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;">1. In Chess, you have to think at least about 3-4 moves ahead….in real life….you have to think ahead! plan for the future…etc.</span></em></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;">2. In Chess, you have to be focused on your moves, you can’t let your mind drifting….then you lose! (if you snooze…you lose!)….in real life, if you are not focused…you lose!</span></em></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;">3. In Chess, you have to prioritise…you may have about 3-4 very good moves to make….so, you have to decide which one is the best move for that particular moment…cause and effect…..in real life, you have to prioritise your life too! You have to decide what is important for that particular moment…cause and effect…again…</span></em></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;">4. In Chess, you have patterns, particular moves occur and you know what to do if it occurs….in real life, something happens and you had experienced it before, so you know how to handle it, you act like you used to do in that particular situation……and….maths is about patterns! so, solve a pattern in chess, considered it solved in maths! ….patterns are easily identified in other situations in real life….or in other subjects! ….or solve a problem in chess…you can solve it in maths! ….so what do I actually try to tell you….? Chess is a fantastic sport to achieve higher levels in Maths…if you are a student! …..but don’t think just a couple of games will do the “job”…you have to commit yourself!</span></em></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;">5. In Chess, you move different directions, that helps in real life (for children) to sort out directions…i.e. left/right….so if they have difficulties with reversing letters, it may help them to solve the problem! Children with spatial problems? Let them play chess! …visual orientation-problems…? Chess is the answer…just think about that tricky move of the knight!!</span></em></div> <div><em><span style="color:#6600cc;">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<strong>So….</strong>people still thinking “Chess….agh! what a boring game…” think <strong>twice</strong>! and if you want to challenge me and want me to tell you more….about what FUN chess is…post me a message and I will keep you busy for about an hour or more!! I had Basil’s jaws dropped today…so I might get yours dropped too!
