Report: Thinkers' Club Session 15

Date: 16th November, 2014
Session # 15
Attended by:  14 participants
Report written by: Fatima Salman

In today’s session, in the first one hour, we did the rehearsal for the play. The roles of some people were changed.  It was announced that the play will take place in January instead of November because we’ll be needing more time to practice and sponsors for the arrangements.

So in the meanwhile between November and January, other than practicing for the play, we’ll be doing other activities related to Thinkers’ Club. Like a Chess competition, that is being planned for the future. Chess involves thinking mathematically, problem solving skills and decision making. It is even good for improving your Math and is a part of the school curriculum in many countries.


After the session was over, most people didn't leave immediately. So we got a chessboard and taught the people who didn't know how to play chess to play chess. Then we played several games of chess.

  1. Chess sounds like a great idea! Will there be tasks in the meantime, or not until after the play in January?
