AFTER THE MEDIA BROADCASTED MATCHES FROM THE CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP INTEREST IN CHESS APPEARED IN SCHOOLS chess web site Raspotochje
While we are waiting for the next matches of our chess players, a review and simulation of the matches of our representatives has been introduced in the schools.
The children enthusiastically followed the classes and simulations and at the end of the class they could play chess and copy some of our moves.
"We are very surprised how the children follow chess with enthusiasm. The media in Raspotochje have started to attach importance to this competition and it is something that children follow.
We are glad that chess has entered our schools as an additional elective subject."
said Professor Jasna Diklić.
" Chess helps children develop intellect and critical thinking. Namely, during the simultaneous match of Ivan Habijanić vs Saerah Garstern, the children were completely inside the match. They asked questions and looked for some other possibilities and options." said professor Diklić.
