Chess

Chess

At Strong Roots Preschool, we make this art a very exciting adventure of learning for tender minds. Herein, our Chess program introduces the timeless game to children through playful lessons that build up their strategic thinking and problem-solving skills.

Children are introduced to the world of chess through age-friendly means of holding and keeping them interested in it. Starting with stories about every chess piece and its movement, we introduce the game's concepts in a way that small children can understand. Our expert teachers make the process enjoyable for kids through chess-themed games and puzzles that lay down the basic skills.

We develop, beyond the chessboard, the most important thinking skills. During the learning process, they will automatically grab the great assets of patience, concentration, and decision-making once they learn how to plan their moves and ways of countering different strategies. Group activities will teach good sportsmanship, respect towards others, and learning from victories or defeats.

The approach is non-competitive and is based on a philosophy of fun. This will create a positive atmosphere which will make every child relaxed, learning at their own pace. Children develop confidence as they master the basic moves or play their first complete game as well as valuable cognitive skills.

It also keeps parents regularly informed of their child's chess progress and the development of his or her thinking skills. Strong Roots helps children discover the joy of chess and simultaneously build a lifetime of thinking skills.
