Hi! This is Luca here! So on Monday, the 9th of May 2016 there was a Chess Tournament (I think you all know how to play chess) for all the 4th grade classes of the two elementary schools in Caselle: Colodi and Rodari, which is my school. The good news will be at the end of this post--so hang in there!
The four best players of each class were chosen to enter the Tournament--but most of all you had to be really good at not fighting. Those kids were Me (first of the class), Gabriele (second of the class), Matteo (third of the class) and finally Lorenzo (fourth of the class).
We got to skip class which I really wanted to do and it was fun there. Guess what? I won all the games but I won't tell you which place I got yet! So basically I had the most wins for my team and I'm still undefeated and my name is the queen killer (I made it up myself) because every one falls into my queen trap. I got 5 wins, Matteo got 3 wins, Lorenzo got 2 wins and Gabriele got 1 win! I forgot to tell you you should be impressed when I got 5 wins because I went against all the 1st place players of each class and when I went against my first competitor I was like "I'm not going to win this game" but my teacher said "don't get agitated or else you'll move your pieces too fast without even thinking and then you'll lose". So I stayed calm and that's how I won all 5! So now here are the results: My team got 3rd place out of 6 and for singles I got 3rd PLACE out of 24 players (I should of got 1st place)! ....One more thing is that I didn't like recopying more stuff for school that I missed.
