Feb 24 class

Next tournament is Mar 11 at Metcalf M.S.
No teams this time unless 4 of you want to compete with the 7th 8th and 9th graders - we could.

I jumped ahead a lesson, so today's lesson was on pinning pieces. You should have learned:
1) How to find a pin - "Two big pieces on a line - look out it's pinning time!"
2) After you pin a piece, ATTACK IT!
3) Don't be in a hurry to take the pinned piece - it's not going anywhere
4) Even a pin on a pawn can be dangerous

Next week we will learn notation. Advanced players will notate their games.
Others will learn all about castling.
