Welcome back. Perhaps you'd like to tell me what you'd like me to call you this time.


Hello kiddo.


You have to get every question right to pass the Very Hard CAPTURING Exam.

If you get a question wrong something extremely horrible will happen to you!

So you need to be very careful and think very hard.

No problem. I'm brilliant at looking for captures.
I can't wait to see what happens if I get them wrong!
I've forgotten how the pieces move.
Only your first answer counts.

If you get a question wrong first time you can try again but you won't score a point.

If you really want to find out what happens give the right answer, then the wrong answer!

Congratulations, Kiddo!!

You have now completed the CAPTURING exam.

Looking for what you can capture and what your opponent can capture is the key to success at chess.

But there's a lot more to learn as well.

Can I do the next lesson now?
I'd like to repeat the quiz and get my certificate
I'll do it later if you don't mind - I have to go now
