Essential Tactics: The Worksheets

By James Stripes

This booklet, Essential Tactics: The Worksheets, gives you 150 exercises in 25 reproducible worksheets with permission to make copies. There are no answers in this edition. These worksheets were created for young chess players, including many who have been playing chess less than a month. The same exercises with solutions appear in Essential Tactics: Building a Foundation for Chess Skills (2017), which is available as an eBook. Chess teachers who recognize the instructive value of these exercises may now make these worksheets available to their students.The eBook Essential Tactics contains not only the solutions to these exercises, but also suggestions for additional lessons that follow after the student finds the tactical solution. Many of these exercises are layered by design. Finding the tactic is the first step. Can the student finish the game when there is a decisive advantage? If the tactic leads only to equality, as is the case in a small number of exercises, can the student maintain equality against strong opposition?
