Position of the Chessboard: White on the Right Worksheet
Proper positioning of the chessboard and the players is just as important as the technicalities and rules that govern chess playing. Before the game begins, each player must ensure that they have a white square in the near right-hand corner of the board. Learn a simple rhyme to remember this rule, «white on the right». Ask your child to check all the pictures showing the kids sitting at the chessboard in the right way.
Required skills:
Students should know the proper way to position the chessboard before beginning the game. They should also be familiar with the right and left directions and be able to remember a simple rhyme ("white on the right") to help them remember the correct positioning.
