Recommendations - chess videos for school chess club??? - 2006/03/27 11:36
I need some help. I am in charge of a chess program at my daughters school. We had our first meeting last week - great turnout. Playing levels are all over the board. I ordered Yasser Sierawans dvd, PRO
CHESS. It came in today and after watching it for about an hour realized that this will absolutely bore the heck out of the kids. I found the production quality to be dated (1987) but still basically ok, content wise. It definitely needs updating with more modern video graphics and smoother presentation. My daughter told me that if I play this at the meeting the kids will probably snicker, get bored and fall asleep. Can't say as I blame her.
Anyone know of some good videos? Decent videos that will hold the interest if 3-12 graders? Something a little more up to date production-wise with great instruction? I bought this based on the write-ups I've seen. Beginning to think I wasted the chess clubs money. Like I said, I think its ok, but I'm almost 50 yrs old. The kids won't like it..
