I teach 5th Grade Math to 100 kids and we also have a chess club-90% of
the
students actively participate in our club. I had a situation come up
yesterday I had never encountered. When a pawn makes it across the board
and is exchanged, is it possible to get a 2nd queen (assuming you already
have one)?
I have always operated under the assumption that you may exchange for
any
piece you have lost, but when a student asserted that he wanted a 2nd
queen, I had to stop and think about that one-any suggestions??
