I would like to present the educational innovation program called “AULA DJAQUE”, in which our 5th grade students have participated. This program exposes the benefits of teaching chess to students as an educational tool. For this reason, the school is the propitious place for their learning and practice. Chess as a game, sport and logical-mathematical activity is a hobby that encourages students to develop mental skills and abilities, it provides them with reflective and analytical thinking that, applied to daily life, improves concentration, reasoning and logical calculation.
In our program we have included the development of chess material with recyclable elements in the “arts & crafts subject” and its learning through digital media in the computer room, among other things. Teacher Iñigo López
