More back-to-school activities

A special back-to-school blitz contest is taking place on ChessKid for the entire month of September. Any ChessKid who plays 100 Fast Chess games over the course of the month will be in with a chance to play FM Mike Klein (AKA FunMasterMike) and win ChessKid merchandise. 

To make sure educators, parents, and community organizers are prepared for the back-to-school season, Coach Dakim Vanterpool will also be holding a special webinar on September 7. The webinar will focus on how to effectively use the ChessKid Classroom Planner and is a great time to ask any ChessKid-related questions to an expert. RSVP here.

Lastly, ChessKid is providing children and educators with a range of useful tools. From a new game analysis feature to helpful chess resources including posters and infographics in English and Spanish, there’s plenty to help kids of all levels along on their chess journey.
