Saswath Academy

As parents, we wish our children to grow up with focus, patience, analytical thinking with an ability to make right decisions. At the same time, we want them to enjoy learning, be creative, take failures with confidence and turn them into success. Saswath Academy was born out of this desire to coach children, encourage them to learn without fear, motivate them to be creative and thrive in a fun filled environment. We teach children from the age of 5 onwards, with a variety interesting subjects.

King may be moving one step at a time, but in a losing situation King can save the game, race against the pawn that is blazing towards the other end to become queen... King movement is very positional. Mohit explains these concepts nicely in this video.

A rare checkmate idea with two bishops. This is more of a puzzle than a scenario happening in real world. Kannan explains, as bishops can "see" only one color it takes as much as 19 moves to win. Children who try to learn Chess, are scared to play real games for fear of losing. For them solving puzzles gives them confidence to see the patterns and understand the tactics.Saswath Academy

We love Chess and believe the moves are poetry 🙂The Chess Poem!Want a break from your smart phone
And some fun in your comfort zone?
Just pick an opponent, a pair of chairs,
And a chess board of binary squaresSixteen chessmen on each side,
In a battle of wits, strategy and pride,
Share a field of sixty four squares,
Ready to move with their own flair.One square forward at a time,
Moves the pawns, eight in a line.
Forward, backward and side to side,
Attacks the rook in one swift glide.Then follows our radiant knight
With an extra jump, left or right,
And Looks out in his diagonal way
To see the Bishop killing the play.At last, the queen from every site
Checks your king under her might.
Now hurry up! It is time to prove
Your mettle with a strategic move.

Here is a poem encouraging children to keep up the spirit during this awful pandemic times with severe lockdown restrictions...Locked at home for over an year,
Devoid of school and friends so dear,
We miss the dances, skits and games,
The birthday wishes with candle flames.Empty grounds and silent bells,
Echo the memories that retell,
The joy of sharing food and treats,
The laughter, silly fights and greetsBut bye bye to traffic jams and rain,
We've got more time to learn and train,
And with online classes in full swing
We've learnt to use our creative wing.By focusing our energy we can collate
A storehouse of ideas that can elate
Our spirits to work towards our dreams
No matter how hard the pandemic seems.- Shraddha G S

Pandemic Lockdowns: Keep up the learning spirit children!
