Dunlap Elementary students learn problem solving skills

Dunlap class
Dear Marc, Peter, Pradeep, Rajeev, Jill, Sarina, & Corin, Patrick, Thomas, Casey, Peter and Kim, Elena and Shanen, Lee, Katherine, and Jeffrey,

Thanks to all of you for helping provide chess supplies to Dunlap 2nd and 3rd graders. The students are very excited about learning new strategic moves that help develop their higher level thinking skills.

Chess is a wonderful opportunity for students to engage and challenge themselves and each other. It strengthens their confidence, social interaction skills, as well as their problem solving skills. Through chess, the students are learning lifelong values and we appreciate your donations greatly!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! The easy teaching manual makes it quite doable! The teachers experience a no stress situation and the students look forward to the chess class with enthusiasm!
