December Update!

Hey everybody, I hope you are having a great December!  Remember, we start back with chess in January - that is, on Tue Jan 3!

Several parents are asking if their child is ready to move on.  At first, we weren't certain about moving everyone forward.  But, we have made the decision that ANY CHILD WHO WISHES TO PLAY may continue with class on Jan 3.  We ask that kids who are not certain PLEASE DO THE PROGRAMS on ChessKid.  Click on LEARN, and go through the lessons... they are excellent.  Ideally, every kid should have the ROOK LEVEL complete before January 3.   This will make class smoother, and let more kids get more from the program once we start again in January.  Remember, your ID is the first three letters of first name plus the first three letters of last name.   The password is the same, plus the number 1 after it.  So John Smith is JohSmi and the password is johsmi1.  Congrats to students Henry R, Zach B, Louis L, and Matthew J, who have done several classes and earned higher levels.  Henry is at Queen 5 level!   Please encourage use of this portal - it is a $49 value and is included with the program- and it's a lot of fun!  Along with lessons, kids can play against each other in a safe environment.   Challenge me to a game!  My ID is MrSeghers.

Are you registered for the next class session?   If you are not, but you want to be, just go to TosaChess.com and click on the little red button to register for the next session.  You can also read about other things there, and see our class schedule.  

Please let me know if you have any questions!   Also - looking for volunteer parents - especially if you know a little bit of chess.   Please reply if you know chess and can help out.  Thanks!
