In Their Own Words (15)

It is great fun and you have lots to learn. Playing people all over the world would take skill and a smart brain.

Chess is my favourite board game because I love solving problems and puzzles. Although it can be hard at times, it is a good brain exercise for me. It is a lot of fun with our chess teacher. He is so funny!

Chess has taught me a lot of things and helped me beat people I can't beat at other things. I have learned a lot of things through our chess teacher. I feel like I am improving my chess skills and stepping up, getting closer to the Megafinal. I am learning more than I thought.

I like chess because it gets my brain working. Also I like chess because it is a good activity to play. Some time I play really good. I've been to three chess tournaments in different schools. A couple of weeks ago I played different people at a tournament in my own school. It was a good day.

Chess is a good for your brain. It is good to play when you are bored on a rainy day. It is very good to play chess because not everybody likes playing out.
