Diana, Sue and Nancy are now coming back home from school. They did a good job on their assignments as a matter of fact. They had a great day at school of course. They have never played chess before. They will try to learn how to play it by the way. Let's hope that Diana and her friends will learn how to play chess.
"Time to go home now, girls" said Diana.
"Okay, Di" said Sue. "We had a great day at school"
"We sure did, Sue" said Diana. "In fact, we worked hard on our assignments"
"That is true, Di" said Nancy. "We got a good grade from our assignments as well"
"We know that, Di" said Sue. "Hopefully, we will can do some more before our holiday break"
Diana and her friends went home and went inside.
"We are home, mom" said Diana.
"Welcome home, girls" said Mrs. Evans. "How was your day at school?"
"It was good, mom" said Diana. "Why is there a game of chess here?"
"We are going to teach you how to play chess" said Mrs. Evans.
"I have never played chess before" said Diana.
"Me either, Di" said Sue.
"I am sure that you will learn how to play, girls" said Mrs. Evans.
"Okay, mom" said Diana.
They went to the chessboard and her mom teaches them how to play.
"I will teach you how to play checkers" said Mrs. Evans.
"Alright, mom" said Diana.
She brought out the rooks and set them up.
"What color are they?" Diana asked.
"They are black and white" said Mrs. Evans. "Each of us will have 16 pieces"
"1 king, 1 queen, 2 rooks, 2 bishops, 2 knights, and 8 pawns?" Diana asked.
"Yes, Di" said Mrs. Evans. "I will move a pawn"
She moves it one square and Diana did the other.
"That's good, Di" said Mrs. Evans. "You are doing great so far"
"Thanks, mom" said Diana. "My friends are learning it as well"
Diana and her friends know how to play chess. See what happens in the next chapter of this long story.
