Chess - The Road to Grandmaster

We at VAC Enrichment run a number of enrichment programming, ranging from sewing to tech to photography to cooking. We are partnering with Collegiate School to run camps this summer as a continuation of the after-school programs. Our students walk away from our programs with skills and interests that they can build upon the rest of their lives. We foster collaboration, presentation and feedback in all our curricula. The VAC teachers range from former teachers to full-time professionals who are excited to teach students about their craft.

Vineyard App Camp - Chess: The Road to Grandmaster
Rising 3rd – Rising 5th Graders
July 21 – 25   1 – 4 p.m.
$230

Delight students with highly engaging chess lessons adapted to your student's age and chess level. In this camp, your students will learn the basics of chess, openings and strategy. Beginning with free play to evaluate familiarity and comfort level, we will layer in skills and work with kids to learn to apply them to game-play. Next, variant games are a great way to keep learners interested and make the game of chess extra fun and playful. Throughout this program, we will work with your child to connect chess concepts so they internalize the game's rules and overarching framework. Total beginners will have a blast without chess experience and advanced chess wizards will develop a deeper understanding of the game. Everyone will "graduate" with knowledge and joy for the game.
