Chess tournament

 Chess tournament

Last week we did a chess tournament, we play 7 games each. When the guy put up the draws everyone went crazy because they wanted to see who they were facing.  When I went to where we play I was so nervous, after five minutes I check mated the girl I was facing. After my game me and hunter played a game where you have a horse and pawns are on the rest of the squares. The horses can only move in a L shape.


 On my first try I had twelve pawns left, then Hunter went and got I think he got eighteen left , then I had another turn, but this time I was determined to win and if I did I would get a badge. After I played I was so angry because I had 7 left.


I won my next game, well I was waiting I tried to guess how much horses were in a really big horse, I guessed 123 because it was so heavy. I won the game because I checkmated her with my horse so I got a badge. By the end I got in the top team and won 5 out of 7 games. 

The End

  1. Kia ora Harry. I Loved reading about what the horses can do, and how you felt. I can remember being determined to try do my best in my netball game. Did you get close to guessing the amount of little horse pieces in the big horse piece. I think you should just go back and make sure everything makes sense, but apart from that I really enjoyed reading how you did at the chess tournament. Te Atawhai

  2. Hi harry, I like how you are making a recount on when we went to the chess tournament. It reminds me of when I was in a tough situation in chess. I also think you should have a little more writing in a paragraph. How many badges did you get?

  3. Hi Harry,
    I love how you put some interesting words in. I also did the chess tournament with you and you were amazing. I also got a badge because I bet someone under 30 seconds. Did you get a badge?
