 Chess

Chess is a very old game but is still here now.  Chess is 1500 years old. The pawn can start off moving 1 or 2 squares. If you move 1 square with a pawn you can not move 2 any more. The castle can move up, down left and right. The horse can jump over pieces as well as moving two squares then going to the side one square. A bishop can only go on an angle. The queen can move on an angle or go left, right, up or down. A king can go any direction but it can only go one square at a time. The aim of the game is to get the other teams king. So if I was you I would keep your king very safe.

Setting up: To set up you have to get you castle on each side. Then you horse goes next to you castle. Then you bishop goes next to your horse. Then you queen and king go in the middle. the queen will go on the opposite colour so if you have a white queen you put it on the black and the king goes next to you.

cool move: This move is called the castle move. If you have not moved you king or castle you can swap there positions.
