Two of my good friends helped to finish the June Free Online Chess Camp in style. Francisco Anchondo did a special live lesson detailing three of his favorite opening traps. Lauren Goodkind then finished up her week of incredibly educational afternoon lessons. After rewatching both segments, I feel so fortunate to be good friends with such talented chess teachers and I know that all of the students who took part in The Daily Chess Musings Free Online Summer Chess Camp learned a lot from our special guests chess coaches. Both lessons are embedded as YouTube videos below and a complete list of Day 5’s lesson plans can be accessed here. Enjoy!
