Thinking with Chess: Teaching Children Ages 5-14
is a handbook for teachers, librarians, after-school instructors, chess
coaches, counselors, and parents that requires no prior knowledge of
the game. Both novices and veteran chess players can use its innovative
lesson plans for teaching groups of children.
Thinking with Chess,Dr. Alexey Root connects chess with skills important to academic
success, such as classifying, pattern recognition, decoding, creating,
and predicting. The book also introduces challenges for practicing
divergent thinking and puzzles for convergent thinking.
Thinking with Chess teaches not only the fundamentals of chess – the chessmen and how they
move, how to keep score, and where to play – but also tools useful in
winning games, such as double check and smothered checkmate.
