Chess for Beginners
Chess Board Visualization Exercise 2
After repeating exercise 1 for the first 2-3 sessions you can then move on to exercise 2.
Board Visualization Exercise #2
Same concept as in exercise #1 but this time you do not look at the board.
- note where the four knights normally develop
- note where the four bishops normally develop
- note the four squares for the fianchettoed bishops
- note the squares where the King and rook are placed after castling
