In the Cheeky Monkeys class, the children learned the fundamental aspects of chess, including the names and features of each piece, as well as the layout of the ranks and files on the chessboard. Through engaging games and chess rhymes, they began to build their understanding of the game. A highlight of the session was the musical chess game, where students actively participated by walking in a circle, eagerly watching for a chess piece to be raised so they could sit and participate. This interactive approach kept everyone involved and excited throughout the lesson, making learning chess both fun and educational.
