Sevilla Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Someone gave me geoboards and rubberbands and the kids enjoy playing with them. How do I use them for math? I noticed they're in the Rightstart manipulatives kits too. Is there anything free online explaining different activities to do with them? Thanks :).

freeindeed Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Have your children make shapes on the board using the bands. Give them rules for the shape: must be 4-sided, must have at least 2 right angles, etc. Also, you make a shape on the board & have them make a congruent shape & vice versa. Here are a few more ideas: http://eclectichomeschool.org/articles/article.asp?articleid=236 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
