Hello Parents,

This plan is based upon my present work schedule. Should I miss a week, the plan will be moved back a week. I would like for you to work with your children to assure they get these basics down. The book is very helpful to the untrained chess parent! I would encourage taking two to three nights to get the scheduled practice done.

Best Regards, Coach Joe Guth
