How make chess easy!

A cura dell’Istruttore FSI

Why “ideo-graphic”?

Analogy with Ideographic writing

Translation from the image or symbol

plane to that of the idea.

Make an abstract idea concrete by means

of a mental association.

Creative participation of students.

The “ideographic” chessboard

Possibility to draw and write with

erasable pencils

Magnetic images "reinforce" visually

the concepts of the lesson

The Knight's jump…

The “walkers” checkmate …

Space at the sides of the board can be

used to write moves or calculate

You can use the board to make logic and

mnemonic games

Chess rhymes

Simplification of general principles

Anticipating understanding

Pattern recognition

Hint on fair-play

Play with words and ideas

When the King is limping…

The game away he is giving.

Put up your Rock early in play…

Just you throw it away.

If quickly moves the Queen...

And the end is often been.

Too many Queens at dance you bring …

Happy in stalemate stay the King!

Isolated and doubled Pawns…

They all are plundered Pawns.

Put your Knight at the side …

Only results halved-hide.
