Take the pencil and draw 8 lines horizontally and vertically using the ruler in order to make the lines straighter. Use the eraser incase you mess up the lines.

Coloring in the Board

color the board starting with black then white. do black and white pattern for the whole line then do it again for the next line but instead a white and black pattern making sure none of the colors have the same color above next to or below that color.

Designing the Checkers Piece

This is a very simple step. For this I used Tinkercad and you take a cylinder and shorten it to 10 millimeters.

And stretch one horizontal side to 30 millimeters and one vertical side to 30 millimeters Then create a hole so nothing is inside and add another cylinder smaller than the original then put it in the middle so there is a small hole on the top and bottom . Do this again with the piece being white and print each colored piece 12 times.
