Kids Chess and Go: Recent Updates

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2011/11/recent-updates.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Saturday, November 5, 2011. I will post later about what we found. In short, the quality of instruction is sort of spotty so it takes some effort to find something that works depending on your child's level. There are only 6-8 scholastic tournaments each year but there are a few kids/parents that seem quite into it nevertheless. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Praveer Sharan Age 6 Gr1.

Kids Chess and Go: Local Chess Club in Norwalk, CT.

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2010/09/local-chess-club-in-norwalk-ct.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Wednesday, September 1, 2010. Local Chess Club in Norwalk, CT. I think his recent play at speed chess has improved a little. Last weekend he tied (with me! For 1st in the FCCC speed chess open for U1600 ahead of a bunch of higher rated players. He even scalped a 1900(! Player so I think that's a personal best. Of course blitz and slow chess are totally different, but it was nice confidence boost for him nevertheless.

Richie participated in the Hong Kong Scholastic Blitz Championships held by the Hong Kong Chess Association in late May, 2012. The event was a city (country?

Kids Chess and Go: NSCF Westchester Chess Camp

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2010/07/nscf-westchester-chess-camp.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Monday, July 19, 2010. NSCF Westchester Chess Camp. One thing to note is that Sunil himself doesn't give the lessons and generally is only present for part of the day. But the master level instructor he selected seemed to be quite good from what I could tell and there were always one or two other strong players helping out as well. Very helpful as Im considering sending my 9 year to this camp. March 27, 2014 at 7:55 PM.

Kids Chess and Go: Odd skill transference

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2011/03/odd-skill-transference.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Thursday, March 24, 2011. Well it had been several years since I had seen these cards so I decided to trot them out and asked Richie and Alyssa to identify the quantities using the grouping tactic. Strangely, Alyssa is still quite facile at grouping by fives and could quite easily and quickly identify any number up to 20 or so within a second or two. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Kids Chess and Go: Castle Chess Camp, Atlanta GA

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2010/06/castle-chess-camp-atlanta-ga.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Monday, June 28, 2010. Castle Chess Camp, Atlanta GA. Richie attended the Castle Chess Camp. In Atlanta, GA a couple weeks ago. This camp is probably one of the pre-eminent chess camps in the country, judging by the sheer number of titled instructors. The answer is simple in a way: people (and kids especially), learn better when they're having fun. Fun and enthusiasm are sort of infectious in a way. I don't think ...As pa...

Kids Chess and Go: Richie on the Rise

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2010/09/richie-on-rise.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Tuesday, September 14, 2010. Richie on the Rise. As a side benefit of our studies over the summer, I seem to have improved around 150 points or so on ICC at blitz. Since I went many years without any significant blitz improvement I can only speculate the recent studies were directly responsible for the improvement. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Kids Chess and Go: Rating Supplements

http://kids-chess-and-go.blogspot.com/2010/11/rating-supplements.html

Kids Chess and Go. Novice player teaches his kids aged. 8 how to play Chess and Go. Monday, November 8, 2010. I was trying to work out how ratings are determined for tournaments and found out that there's an element of uncertainty that isn't obvious at first. For the December supplement to be ready for December, it obviously needs to be finalized before the month of December begins, so it is generally published shortly after the first Friday of November, aiming to capture all events completed in October.
