Renaissance Knights Chess Foundation and the Chicago Public Schools invite first through twelfth grade Teachers and Administrators to participate in this special day-long workshop that will help schools incorporate chess as part of their school's core curriculum. Attendees will learn about the latest techniques in chess education and will walk away with a much greater understanding of how to leverage chess as a tool to enhance all subject areas.  We will also present an overview of our high successful pilot program in Mrs. Lasisi’s 5th grade class at Galileo School.

 

Teachers who attend this workshop and implement chess in their classroom next school year will receive equipment, course manuals, and support from Renaissance Knights Chess Foundation.

 

 Receive 5 CPDU for attending this workshop.
