Pawn mini-games are a great way to engage children and very fun.

Our journey to chess Grandmasters has begun! In Room 3 we focused on the pawn today during our chess lesson with the help of @Ficheall_ie videos! Some interesting tactics on show! ♟♟ #checkmate

With new school year starting this is a great opportunity to think about how to engage children through chess. This book will be a great guide in helping teachers use chess mini-games as stepping stone to learning chess.

My new book published by @CrownHousePub promotes a different approach to junior chess and encourages schools to be proactive in how they approach the game. Find out more & read some reviews here.
