Knights jump over
pieces of any color.
Knights can capture opponent’s pieces, but not
their own pieces. MOVING THE QUEEN The Queen combines the moves of the Rook and the Bishop. The Queen moves to vacant squares in a straight line. The Queen must stop before her own pieces, or she can capture an opponent’s piece and occupy that square. MOVING THE KING The King moves one square in any direction, but cannot stay in or move to a square under attack by an opposing piece, or occupy a square that has one of his own pieces. MOVING THE KING The King may capture an unprotected piece, even if it is attacking him.
Castling is done with both the King and Rook in the same move. MOVING PAWNS Pawns move forward, either one or two empty squares on their first move, and only one empty square after that. MOVING PAWNS Pawns may capture opponent’s pieces that are one diagonal square in front of it.
A Pawn cannot capture a piece directly in front of it. “EN PASSANT” CAPTURE Pawns allowed able to take an opponent’s pawn “en passant” (French for “in passing”).
When the opponent’s pawn
moves two squares, the pawn can captures as if the pawn only moves one square. “EN PASSANT” CAPTURE This en passant capture MUST be done immediately (on the very next move), or the option to capture this way is lost. RULES FOR CASTLING
1. The King & Rook have not yet
CASTLING moved in the game. 2. All squares between the King and Rook are empty. 3. The King is not in check. 4. The King does not move to or move over a square that is in check. CHECKMATE AND WHEN TO RESIGN CHECKMATE Checkmate is when one player’s King is threatened and there is no legal move to meet the threat. The player giving checkmate wins the game. A player can resign when their position is hopeless. It is a loss, but it saves time & shows they knew they lost. 4 WAYS TO DRAW A GAME
1. By agreement with your opponent
DRAW 2. Repeating the same position three (3) times, with the same person to move and the same possible moves 3. Stalemate: The player to move has no legal moves and is not in check 4. The 50-Move Rule: 50 moves without a check or a piece being captured ABOUT DRAWS To request a draw: DRAW 1. You must be the player to move 2. Make your move 3. Offer a draw before touching the clock. The offer is considered on your time, not your opponent’s time. If your opponent offers a draw, he often thinks he is losing. Check what winning chances you have. 50-MOVE DRAW EXAMPLE The opposite-color 50-MOVE Bishops can avoid DRAW each other, and avoid capture by the King forever.
This will be a draw
eventually, if one is not offered and accepted. PERFORMANCE PERFORMANCE 1. Name each chess piece. APPLICATION 2. Set up the chess board. 3. Demonstrate how each chess piece moves. 4. Demonstrate castling and en passant capture. 5. Explain the four rules in castling. 6. Demonstrate on a chess board four ways a chess game can end in a draw. THANKS!
