The tenth happy Easter

HI THERE EVERYONE,

This is the tenth activity and we are almost on Easter break

The situation, I heard, is a little better but we are staying cautious and not very far from our community so I imagine we have time to have a rest and play my favourite game with my family and friends.

I suggest you to play and practice with pawns, they are very important to defend our positions and remember: one of their characteristics is they cannot go backwards, when you move any of them it cannot go anywhere but forward.

Let's see the summary what we can find on this activity:

• A video to learn about the pawns and their "superpowers"
• One more hint to realize if you or your partner is a newby in chess
• A couple of diagrams to blow up your smart minds.

So let's start if you dare.

Click here to download the document, and there you will get the video.

 

I am eagerly awaiting your responses and creativity.
