The introduction of chess in early childhood education: an experience

Chess is a very complete game and it has a lot of wealth in different areas and aspects; for this reason, it isn’t surprising that schools invest in it as a teaching tool to apply in schools as instructional subject.

In this article, I present the experience that I took place during 2012-2013 academic year at school in Vendrell, which I introduced chess to a group of children of child education, particulary at the levels of P4 and P5.

I value the project positively and I can extract interesting conclusions that I intend to share with the reader, with the main aim to spread the art of chess as a resource to keep in mind in the current teaching.
