Chess involves math! Each piece has its own value, from the king (worth the entire game) to the queen (9 points), varying according to their power and role. In the worksheet, your child must use these values to solve the equations at the bottom.
To teach students how to record captures in chess, use this worksheet. Write down the piece's short name, start sq., and the sq. where it captures, separating them with an X. For example, Rd2Xd4 means a rook moved d2 to d4 and took a piece. Pawn captures don't need a name.
