Short Notation of Moves Worksheet

To master chess, you need more than just knowing the pieces and their moves - you need to be able to make notations of your moves. To make a short notation, write the piece name and square it moved to; for example, Bd2 for bishop on d2. Pawns don't need the piece name, just the square; e.g. g5. Show your kids how to draw lines to the board for the moves given.

How to train the Coordinate system comprehension skill in Grade 1 students learning about Chess?

To train Grade 1 students in understanding the chess coordinate system, start by simplifying the board into smaller, manageable sections. Use colorful stickers or markers to highlight files (columns) and ranks (rows). Practice calling out coordinates and have students place or move pieces to those spots.
