A Most Fascinating Journey! It has long been recognized that there are only three major areas of human endeavor which produce prodigies: music, chess and mathematics. This does not occur by happenstance. There are links on many levels. Now, for the first time, Music and Chess – Apollo Meets Caissa examines the yet unexplored relation of chess to music. Mathematics is a main common denominator, a fact that is highlighted accordingly. The thesis of this extraordinarily researched book is that chess is art in itself. It can create art and is strongly related to mathematics and music. As becomes clear, this relationship has already been introduced by some legendary players such as Mikhail Tal and Vladimir Kramnik . Great artists such as John Cage, Marcel Duchamp and Arnold Schönberg, to name but a few, have also been fascinated by the very same idea. Surprisingly, this has not been explored in detail so far – only some sporadic articles exist, by authors specializing in either music or chess. There are chapters that address issues which are specialized in chess and music, while others cover related issues of general, social and artistic nature. Music and Chess – Apollo Meets Caissa can be appreciated by readers who have a good, general, though non-specific background, in both fields. That is, no technical knowledge of music is required, with the only prerequisite to fully appreciate the text being the understanding of standard chess rules. The text could be equally enlightening to students of music or mathematics, as an added intellectual insight into these two disciplines. The text is supplemented by many chess diagrams, charts, and over 50 full-color images. So, turn on the music, set up chessboard, get out the calculator and let the author take you on a most fascinating journey that is Music and Chess – Apollo Meets Caissa.

Many books have suggested chess related math projects for teachers to use, but this workbook is the world firstly created for students under grade 1 to combine chess directly into math computation worksheets. This workbook teaches basic computations in addition and subtraction, mostly, for one-digit operations. It also includes mathematical puzzles and mathematical chess puzzles. Some puzzles combine arithmetic, chess, and Sudoku all in one. This special puzzle is called Frankho ChessDoku. A world's first invention maze called Frankho ChessMaze is also included in this workbook. To understand a bit more about Ho Math Chess teaching philosophy and its worksheet, watch the following video: https: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td3SKp7cukA Please email Frank Ho at [email protected] for any problems, suggestions, or concerns. I started to get involved in chess teaching at the time when my son was about 6 years old. He showed interest in a set of chess placed on the table in the living room. He was excited about finding out that by making a right move he was rewarded with taking his opponent's piece. Later we studied chess together and he became a Canadian junior chess champion and a FIDE chess master. My interest shifted from playing chess itself to studying the relation between chess and mathematics. Eventually, I created this Ho Math, Chess, and Puzzles for Grade 1 and Under workbook. There are many pure math puzzles or chess puzzles only workbooks on the market. How this Ho Math, Chess, and Puzzles for Grade 1 and Under workbook sets itself apart from others is that it contains one-of-a-kind mathematical chess puzzles in which math concepts and chess knowledge are integrated using my invention of SCL (Symbolic Chess Language) to link math and chess and this discovery is the world's first. SCL is based on the chess set which I created using a geometry concept of line segments and lines. This workbook is a revolutionary breakthrough in teaching math using game-based teaching method. Many problems require children to look for problems using spatial relations and patterns, also find their answers by computing in multi-step. As a result, this math and chess integrated workbook takes the boredom and repetitions away from computing practice. Ho Math Chess teaching method can improve children's math scores and problem-solving ability; develop children's logic and critical thinking skills. It is a natural health food for improving brainpower. Most of the teaching organizations use a very classic teaching method that is to teach basic numeracy or counting skills, they do not know how to systematically integrate a chess game into math worksheets. Ho Math Chess is the only one and the world's first to have integrated chess and puzzles into math calculation worksheets to make math learning fun. This workbook uses chess pieces, chess points and chessboard etc. to instil mathematical concepts related to the pattern, logic, geometry transformation, number theory and many, many other math concepts. This workbook is created with the ideas of learning math in multi-concept, multi-sensory, multi-direction and hands-on approach. It is an innovative product of supplementing elementary mathematics. The purposes of this workbook are to develop and train the skills of the following areas.

Mathematics today is approaching a state of cnSIS. As the demands of science and society for mathematical literacy increase, the percentage of American college students intending to major in mathematics plummets and achievement scores of entering college students continue thelt unremit ting decline. As research in core mathematics reaches unprecedented heights of power and sophistication, the growth of diverse applied special ties threatens to fragment mathematics into distinct and frequently hostile mathematical sciences. These crises in mathematics presage difficulties for science and engineer ing, and alarms are beginning to sound in the scientific and even in the political communities. Citing a trend towards "virtual scientific and techno logical illiteracy" and a "shrinking of our national commitment to excel lence . . . in science, mathematics and technology," a recent study con ducted for the President by the U. S. National Science Foundation and Department of Education warns of serious impending shortcomings in public understanding of science. "Today people in a wide range of non scientific . . . professions must have a greater understanding of technology than at any time in our history. Yet our educational system does not now provide such understanding. " The study goes on to conclude that present trends pose great risk of manpower shortages in the mathematical and engineering sciences. "The pool from which our future scientific and engineering personnel can be drawn is . . . in danger of becoming smaller, even as the need for such personnel is increasing. " It is time to take a serious look at mathematics tomorrow.

Mathematical chess is a two-player educational and entertaining game played on ten digit pieces (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) and six operator pieces (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, power, and root). The chessboard is a grid made up of nine vertical and nine horizontal lines. It is flexible and suitable for all students from middle and high schools to universities. The excessive use of electronic calculators and games has caused a negative impact on the alertness of the minds and the numerical abilities of students at all levels. Dr Ryan said, In numeracy, the young teenage student in 2003 was approximately a quarter of a grade level behind his or her counterpart in 1964. This was reported in the article Grade Worse Than in 1960s (SMH, 11 February 2008). Students love challenges and competitions. Dr Robert C. Ferguson writes, A learning environment organised around games has a positive effect on students attitudes towards learning (Teachers Guide: Research and Benefits of Chess, 11 October 2006). The above statements drive the implementation of this mathematical chess game. Like European chess and Chinese chess, mathematical chess teaches strategy planning, problem-solving, memory improvement, decision-making, concentration, perseverance, observation, analysis, and organisation skill. Mathematical chess itself also promotes numerical abilities, mental alertness, and speedy calculation. The numeracy performance of students in many countries has not improved since 1960, not because of the incompetence of the teachers, but because an educational game interesting and challenging enough to attract students attention did not exist. Mathematical chess can help resolve this drawback. The authors dream is to see mathematical chess become a popular game in all middle and high schools, and to see the love and passion of mathematics flowering in the minds of young people around the world.
