"Check Mate!" Chess is a fun game that incorporates and helps foster intellectual growth while having fun. It's not about Kings, Queens and Rooks, but rather, quadrants and coordinates, thinking strategically and foreseeing consequences. It's about lines and angles, weighing options and making decisions. Chess might just be the perfect teaching and learning tool. The game of chess increases higher level thinking skills, advance math and reading skills, and builds self-confidence. Beginners and experienced players welcomed!
