[blparent] Chess Course at Hadley School

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

I've never played, but my stepson loves chess, and he would be thrilled if I 
learned how.  Does the first course start from the very beginning, like 
chess for dummies or something?  Is there a way to adapt chess boards so 
sighted and blind players can have games together?

Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may 
kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at 
evening.--Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

Hi,

Both chess courses they offer there are great!  Bob's a fantastic teacher,
and you get to keep the materials when you're done the first course.
Through talking communities you can meet with your class, and get extra help
from Bob when you need it.  You can also look at your progress online and
submit your assignments by email.

Hello all,
I signed up to take the chest course through haply school for the blind. Has
anyone taken this course or courses through them? Is it a good program?
