Sedgwick third-graders learn go

Third graders at Sedgwick Elementary School, in Cupertino, CA, learned how to play go at their school's annual Discovery Day on March 26th.  As in previous years, the school invited many presenters to teach various kinds of fun activities, such as fencing, YoYo, and robotics. Wenguang Wang, Hongya Qu, and Yi Luo, from The VMware Go Club and Santa Clara Youth Go Club, volunteered as presenters and hosted the “Learn to Play Go” session for about 100 third-graders. The same session was presented to the entire third grade (4 classes of students).  Students learned the rules of go and played a few games on 9x9 boards. They enjoyed the session, especially those who won!  Story and Photo by Wenguang Wang.
