The day wise lesson plan will go as:

Day 2 : Mate in 1 move , and assisted checkmate and fastest checkmate.   

Day 3:, Checkmate in 2 puzzles n Rook roller checkmate 

Day 4: Queen checkmate 

Day 5 :  Draw rules: 50 moves rule , draw by agreement and insufficient  mating material 

Day 6 : Finding best moves to get out of check and avoiding stalemate in winning situations 

Day 7 :  Sacrifice to win – puzzles for sacrificing different pieces 

Day 8 : Avoid traps and counter attack – defensive skills 

Day 9 : Stopping pawn promotions and avoiding checks 

Day 10 : Assessment of positions , simplification and imbalances basic. 

The students will start playing timed games with the teacher from the very first class and as they progress further in the class , they will also be encouraged to play games against each other in a healthy competition. The teacher will help in game analysis and explain the concepts better. Each day will have a minimum of 20 minute of game play.
