En Passant: Writing it Down Worksheet
Correctly writing down the moves in a game of chess is a duty that might be well overlooked in your child’s quest to becoming a grand chess master. Proper notation of an en passant capture requires that your child write down the start and end squares of the capturing pawn and put an X between them. For example, d5xe6. Ask your children to look through the worksheet and check the correct notation of the capture pictured.
Required skills:
Students should know how to correctly and accurately write down the moves in a game of chess, specifically when capturing an en passant. They should be able to identify the start and end positions of the capturing pawn and properly notate it with an "X" between them.
