Author Description

Many books have suggested chess related math projects for teachers to use, but this workbook is the world firstly created for students under grade 1 to combine chess directly into math computation worksheets. This workbook teaches basic computations in addition and subtraction, mostly, for one-digit operations. It also includes mathematical puzzles and mathematical chess puzzles. Some puzzles combine arithmetic, chess, and Sudoku all in one. This special puzzle is called Frankho ChessDoku. A world's first invention maze called Frankho ChessMaze is also included in this workbook.

SCL is based on the chess set which I created using a geometry concept of line segments and lines. This workbook is a revolutionary breakthrough in teaching math using game-bas
