Chess, primary education, integrated skillsAbstract
The present article discusses an original way of learning chess in the school context. This proposition concerns the first year of learning chess by the seven-year-old pupils. The organizational principles are described, resulting in the children’s age, psychological disposition and didactic implications. Four school subjects are linked with chess instructions. Firstly, chess is presented as a physical education, which is not common. Subsequently, Polish, mathematics and arts activities are suggested. The whole project is dedicated to promoting chess learning in a friendly context, even for children who will not choose to become chess players.
