Name the 2D Shape KS1 PowerPoint Quiz - Get the whole class excited about learning with this fun quiz-style PowerPoint. A geoboard is a mathematical manipulative used to explore basic concepts in plane geometry such as perimeter, area and the characteristics of triangles and other polygons. The white boards are printed with a 3 x 3 square geoboard and can be written on and rubbed off enabling the class to experiment and try out activities on the geoboard. Registered Office: Primary ICT Ltd, 13d Miners Way, Lakesview Business Park, Canterbury, Kent CT3 4LQ.Two-dimensional representations of the geoboard may be applied to ordinary paper using rubber stamps or special "geoboard paper" with diagrams of geoboards may be used to help capture a student's explanations of the concept they have discovered or illustrated on the geoboard. Students are asked to place rubber bands around the nails to explore geometric concepts or to solve mathematical puzzles.

Using the right tools I found these straightforward to make and they really did make a cute activity to do with my little ones!Learners stretch bands around the pegs to form line segments and polygons and make discoveries about perimeter, area, angles, congruence, fractions, and more. A Geoboard is a mathematical tool made up of pegs sticking out of a square base, allowing pupils to wrap elastic bands around the pegs to create different shapes. Geoboards consist of a series of spaced pins on a board which are laid out in varying patterns – square, isometric or circular.
