Bloomington Community Education

Gr. 1-6 Learn new skills that are not covered during our after school chess clubs. Work on the five elements of chess, and two new chess openings! We’ll also work on end-game theory and practice new end-game scenarios and tactics. New players will learn piece movement, attacking strategies, notation lessons, and game play. All lessons are taught for every student to succeed in their playing skills, both on and off the board! Prizes will be awarded to ALL players at the end of the week. We’ll also have other outside and inside activities throughout the week. Please make sure to bring a rocket garage (shoe box) on Monday for the rocket kit. Launch time will be 2:30pm on Thursday! Pack a nut-free lunch and we’ll head outside for a picnic every day, weather permitting. Don’t forget the sunscreen. Note: This is a full-day class....bring a nut-free lunch, two nut-free snacks, and a water bottle to camp daily.
