In this feature, we bring together activities which make use of the geoboard or pegboard, which is a wonderful resource for developing children's understanding of properties of shape, area and angles. This app was crafted by Clarity Innovations: “We improve teaching and learning by creating solutions that match promising technologies with the needs of education. 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! The log slices are as smooth as is possible, you can either use it as it is or smooth down more by sanding.

These versatile boards work well for demonstrating geometric concepts, introducing the names of shapes, working out areas, symmetry work and fractions. These colourful isometric geoboards are double sided with an 11 x 11 pin grid array on one side and an 11 x 11 triangular pin array on the other.
