    The project provides for the introduction of the subject "Chess" to the primary school as compulsory for all students in the class.
    Representing an organic combination of science and games, chess helps younger schoolchildren overcome the crisis of the age of seven, when children's games are replaced by serious school classes . Classes in chess contribute to the development of voluntary attention of younger schoolchildren, semantic memory and thinking in general. One can not ignore the great potential of chess in preserving the health of schoolchildren. Being in the grid of compulsory subjects, chess contributes to the development of a completely different principle of working with educational material, helping to prevent the mental overstrain of children inevitable today because of the excess of information. And finally, like no subject of the school curriculum, chess can make real competition with computer games that negatively affect the child's psyche, and this happens not through prohibitions on the part of adults, but because of natural interest in an exciting and wise game.
    As a basis for the introduction of chess in primary school is considered the course of IG Sukhin "Chess - school" for primary classes of general educational institutions.
