This camp is for young learners who can already play chess strategically, but are not quite ready for the world of deep analysis and memorizing tactical lines that they would find in our Advanced level courses (and beyond). Instead, this course is a great followup course to take after finishing one of our "Become a Chess Pro: Intermediate Lessons..." courses. Some of the lessons include taking a deeper look at the strategies discussed in the previous courses, while other lessons introduce brand new topics altogether. Each day's lesson starts with about 30 minutes of explanation and discussion, followed by, for the remaining duration of each class, virtual chess games between the classmates, supervised by the instructor. Schedule of Lessons (first 30 minutes of each class): Day 1: Points of Failure on the Board Day 2: Shifting Centers & Attacking Castled Positions Day 3: Pattern Recognition Day 4: Open & Closed Positions Day 5: King & Pawn Endgames Day 6: Forcing Stalemate, Perpetual Check, & Draw by Repetition Day 7: The Double Bishop Checkmate Day 8: Conclusion: Review, Chess Puzzles, and more! Schedule of Virtual Games (final 30 minutes of each class): Day 1: Practice Games with instructor coaching Day 2: Practice Games with instructor coaching Day 3: Practice Games with instructor coaching Day 4: Practice Games with instructor coaching Day 5: In-class tournament Round 1 games Day 6: In-class tournament Round 2 games Day 7: In-class tournament Round 3 games Day 8: Awards Ceremony (all students will be sent certificates of completion and tournament award ribbons)

Central New York Chess is a New York State registered Non Profit Organization, and an affiliate of the US Chess Federation. We are on a mission to teach critical thinking, logic, reasoning, and other life and social skills through scholastic chess instruction, to today's youth. Our classes are primarily directed at elementary & middle-school-aged children, and are organized into 8-week semesters of once-weekly 60-minute long classes (8 meetings total), each comprised of approximately 30 minutes of lecture format followed by approximately 30 minutes of organized play between the students. We've been teaching these classes locally for years, but now are excited to share them with the rest of the world thanks to Outschool!
