Chess quest photos! Session #5, better late than never:)

In this quest, Heroes committed themselves to Chess for one session, and committed to transforming a strength of theirs, one that supports them in their responsibilities at Acton, into a superpower.

This quest was completed independently (not in teams), with the challenges remaining the same almost every day (different forms of play), with specific focal points (skills, strategies, and growth) each week. The goal of this quest was to allow the Hero es to experience the benefits of playing Chess firsthand, and to apply those skills to other parts of their lives as well. The benefits of regularly playing Chess are plentiful and include: increase in strategic thinking, creativity, foresight & planning, memory, reading skills, and communication.
