CHAPTER 1

Recreational Activities
Introduction / Overview

A review of current literature indicates that people who participate in sports club
and organized recreational activities enjoy better mental health, are more alert,
and more resilient against stresses of modern living. Participation in recreational
groups and socially supported physical activity is show to reduce stress, anxiety
and depression. Violent crime also decreases significantly when participation in
community activities.

But because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the impacts on sport and active living
have been transformative, complex and highly uneven. It has forced an
unprecedented global shut-down.

Sport mega events and sport leagues have been cancelled/closed or


postponed, and fitness centers, rehabilitation centers, and sport clubs have all
been negatively impacted. Closed schools require changes to the physical
education. At the same time, online physical training is more available than ever.

The Covid-19 pandemic has physiological, psychological, social and societal


burdens, yet might also provide possibilities. Exercise, recreation and leisure is

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 2


really important in helping us keep mentally and physically well during these
difficult times.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the lesson, the student will be able to…

1. define the different terms used in recreational activities;

2. identify and differentiate the types of recreation;

3. discuss the importance, needs, factors, standards and values of


recreation today.

“Recreation’s purpose is not to kill time, but to make life, not to keep a person
occupied, but to keep them refreshed; no to offer an escape from life, but to
provide a discovery of life.”

CHAPTER 2

Table Games – Chess


Introduction / Overview

Board games are traditionally a subset of tabletop games that involve counters
or pieces moved or placed on a pre-marked surface or "board", according to a set of
rules. In common parlance, however, a board game need not necessarily contain a
physical board. Some games are based on pure strategy, but many contain an
element of chance; and some are purely chance, with no element of skill.
Games usually have a goal that a player aims to achieve. Early board games
represented a battle between two armies, and most modern board games are still
based on defeating opponents in terms of counters, winning position, or accrual of
points.
There are many varieties of board games. Their representation of real-life situations can
range from having no inherent theme, such as checkers, to having a specific theme
and narrative, such as Cluedo. Rules can range from the very simple, such as in Snakes
and Ladders; to deeply complex, as in Advanced Squad Leader.
The time required to learn to play or master a game varies greatly from game to game,
but is not necessarily correlated with the number or complexity of rules; games
like chess or Go possess relatively simple rulesets, but have great strategic depth.

Learning Objectives

At the end of the lesson, the student will be able to:

1. discuss the nature and background of the game chess;


2. explain the values and benefits gained from the game;
3. execute basic skills and tactics in chess;
4. interpret rules and regulations in playing chess;
5. practice the value of honestly, sportsmanship, patience and discipline.

Lesson 1

Brief History of Chess


Do you know where chess originated? Chess is a game that has been played for
centuries and was thought to have originated in India in the 15th century. Long ago, it
was considered a game reserved only for kings and members of the upper classes.
Nowadays, chess is played by common people even at an early age.
The modern design of chess pieces bears the name Staunton, who was an
English master in the mid-1800’s.These are the types of pieces that are now used in all
tournaments worldwide.
The first international chess tournament was the London Tourney played in 1851.
A German named Adolf Anderssen won the game. He became the unofficial best
chess player of the world because he did not receive any award or title.
The first great American-born chess player was Paul Morphy. Paul travelled to
Europe in the 1850’s, where he beat all challengers including Adolf Anderssen.
However, the English champion of the time (Staunton) refused to play with him. So
Morphy never became a world chess champ.
The first official championship chess tournament was played in 1866 in London
with sand clocks to restrict the length of a game. A Bohemian (Czechoslovakian) Jew
named Steinitz won the game. He became the world’s first official chess champion,
holding this title until 1894.
Have you wondered who rules in the world of chess today? Recently, Russia
dominates the game of chess. This results from establishment of government schools for
talented chess players after the communist revolution of 1917. Since 1927, many of the
top chess players have been citizens of the former USSR and include: Tal, Alekhine,
Petrosian, Spassky, Smyslov, AnatoliKarpov and Gary Kasparov.

Lesson 2

Youare now on the exciting part of this module. In this activity you will be
acquainted with the proper positioning of the chess pieces on the chess board.

Try to visualize a chess board with chess pieces placed in their proper initial
positions. In your activity notebook, copy the illustration as shown and locate the
following pieces in their initial positions on the chess board by writing the number in the
space provided.

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 18


Through the aforementioned activities, you were able to identify the initial
positions of the chess pieces on the chess board. In the proceeding activity, you will
perform the moves of each chess piece.

CHESS PIECES
Each chess piece has its own style of moving. In the diagrams, the dots mark the
squares where the piece can move if no other pieces (including one's own piece) are
on the squares between the piece's initial position and its destination.

Follow the moves of the chess pieces as illustrated below.

The king is the most


important piece. However, it is
also considered one of the
weakest. The king only moves
one square in any direction –
up, down, to the sides and
diagonally. The king may never
move himself into check
where he could be captured.

The queen is the most


powerful piece. It moves in any
one straight direction –
forward, backward, sideways
or diagonally. As all other
pieces, except the knight it
cannot move over any
intervening piece.

The rook may move to


any square as far as it wants,
but only forward, backward,
and to the sides. The rooks are
particularly powerful pieces
when they are protecting each
other and working together.

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 19


The bishop move as far
as it wants but only
diagonally. Each bishop starts
on one color (light or dark)
and must always stay on that
color. Bishop work well
together because they cover
up each other’s weaknesses.

Knights moves by
going two squares in one
direction, and then one
more move just like an “L”
shape. Knights are the only
pieces that can move over
the other pieces.

Pawns move
toward but capture
diagonally. They can
never move
backwards. On its first
move, the pawn can
advance two squares
at a time. Succeeding
moves will be one
square at a time.

Pieces can also be moved to defend other pieces in case of capture or to


control important squares in the game.

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 20


CHESS BOARD
Chess is played on a square board of eight rows (called ranks and denoted with
numbers 1 to 8) and eight columns (called files and denoted with letters a to h) of
squares. The colors of the 64 squares alternate and are referred to as "light squares"
and "dark squares". The chessboard is placed with a light square at the right-hand end
of the rank nearest to each player, and the pieces are set out as shown in the
diagram, with each queen on its own color.

The pieces are divided, by


convention, into white and black sets.
The players are referred to as "White"
and "Black", and each begins the
game with 16 pieces of the specified
color. These consist of one king, one
queen, two rooks, two bishops, two
knights, and eight pawns.

Movement

White always moves first. After the


initial move, the players alternately move
one piece at a time (with the exception
of castling, when two pieces are moved).
Pieces are moved to either an unoccupied
square or one occupied by an opponent's
piece, which is captured and removed
from play. With the sole exception of en
passant, all pieces capture opponent's
pieces by moving to the square that the
opponent's piece occupies. A player may
not make any move that would put or
leave his king under attack. If the player to
move has no legal moves, the game is
over; it is either a checkmate (a loss for the
player with no legal moves)if the king is under attackor a stalemate (a draw)if the king
is not.

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 21


Special Movements

Castling

Once in every game, each king is


allowed to make a special move, known as
castling. Castling consists of moving the
king two squares along the first rank toward
a rook (which is on the player's first rank)
and then placing the rook on the last
square the king has just crossed. Castling is
permissible only if all of the following
conditions hold:

 Neither of the pieces involved in castling may have been previously moved
during the game.
 There must be no pieces between the king and the rook.
 The king may not be in check, nor may the king pass through squares that are
under attack by enemy pieces, nor move to a square where it is in check.

En passant

When a pawn advances two squares from its starting position and there is an
opponent's pawn on an adjacent file next to its destination square, then the
opponent's pawn can capture it en passant (in passing), and move to the square the
pawn passed over. However, this can only be done on the very next move, otherwise
the right to do so is forfeit. For example, if the black pawn has just advanced two
squares from g7 (initial starting position) to g5, then the white pawn on f5 may take it
via en passant on g6 (but only on white's next move).

Promotion

When a pawn advances to the eighth rank, as


a part of the move it is promoted and must be
exchanged for the player's choice of queen,
rook, bishop, or knight of the same color.
Usually, the pawn is chosen to be promoted to
a queen, but in some cases another piece is
chosen; this is called underpromotion. In the
diagram on the right, the pawn on c7 can be
advanced to the eighth rank and be promoted
to an allowed piece. There is no restriction
placed on the piece that is chosen on
promotion, so it is possible to have more pieces
of the same type than at the start of the game
(for example, two queens).
Examples of pawn moves: promotion
(left) and en passant (right)

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 22


Check

When a king is under immediate attack by


one or two of the opponent's pieces, it is
said to be in check. A response to a check
is a legal move if it results in a position where
the king is no longer under direct attack
(that is, not in check). This can involve
capturing the checking piece; interposing a
piece between the checking piece and the
king (which is possible only if the attacking
piece is a queen, rook, or bishop and there
is a square between it and the king); or
moving the king to a square where it is not
under attack. Castling is not a permissible
response to a check. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent; this
occurs when the opponent's king is in check, and there is no legal way to remove it
from attack. It is illegal for a player to make a move that would put or leave his own
king in check.

End of the Game

Although the objective of the game is to checkmate the opponent, chess


games do not have to end in checkmate, either player may resign which is a win for
the other player. It is considered bad etiquette to continue playing when in a truly
hopeless position. If it is a game with time control, a player may run out of time and

Abalos, John Alfred C., Paulino, Glea Joy E.,et.al 23


lose, even with a much superior position. Games also may end in a draw (tie). A draw
can occur in several situations, including draw by agreement, stalemate, threefold
repetition of a position, the fifty-move rule, or a draw by impossibility of checkmate
(usually because of insufficient material to checkmate). As checkmate from some
positions cannot be forced in fewer than 50 moves (such as in the pawnless chess
endgame and two knights endgame), the fifty-move rule is not applied everywhere,
particularly in correspondence chess.
