2nd Girls’ Academy held at the 9Queens Chess Studio

Posted by Jessica Martin on August 8th, 2008

This was my last Girls’ Academy in Tucson, but no worries!  It will be continued by Jenelle Wallace, stellar player on the winning Catalina Foothills team.  Plus, I’ll be teaching a Girls’ Academy in Charlotte, NC.  Stay tuned for more!

We discussed the games of Judit PolgarI taught "The Learning Continuum":  my ideas on process v product, and how, despite winning or losing, everyone is on the same learning path.  What’s great about chess is you never go backwards!  We also looked at a game by Judit Polgar and discussed how to play aggressively.

 

Sadie had to play Jenelle…
