Across
- 2. A sneaky move or idea to surprise your opponent — sometimes smart, sometimes just fun!
- 4. When your strong piece (like a Queen or Rook) attacks a big enemy piece, forcing it to move — and when it does, a smaller piece hiding behind it gets caught!
- 5. When your opponent’s piece can’t move, because if it does, a more important piece behind it (like the King or Queen) will be in danger.
- 7. When you tempt your opponent’s piece to move to a bad square so you can catch it later.
Down
- 1. When you make a move that puts your opponent’s piece in danger of being taken.
- 2. When you set up a clever plan that looks safe to your opponent… until it’s too late!
- 3. When you take your opponent’s piece off the board — one of the most satisfying moves in chess!
- 6. When one of your pieces attacks two enemy pieces at the same time — they can save one, but not both!
