Teachables Geometric Pin Boards - Pack of 6

Shape up your maths lessons with colour and creativity! This set of Geometric Pin Boards is a versatile and engaging hands-on resource for teaching a wide range of mathematical concepts. The pack includes six brightly coloured, double-sided pin boards-each measuring 23cm square-with a classic 11×11 square grid on one side and an isometric triangle grid on the reverse. Ideal for exploring 2D and 3D geometry, students can use the included elastic bands to create polygons, replicate patterns, and visualise transformations. These boards support rich learning experiences in areas such as symmetry, area, perimeter, angles, and even fractions. Each board comes in a different colour (red, yellow, green, blue, orange, and purple), encouraging group use and colour-coded learning. Whether used during structured lessons or for open-ended exploration, these pin boards foster spatial reasoning, logical thinking, and geometric fluency in an enjoyable and tactile way.

Educational Benefits:

• Promotes spatial awareness and visual reasoning through hands-on geometric exploration.
• Supports understanding of shape properties, symmetry, perimeter, and area.
• Encourages fine motor development and hand-eye coordination using elastic bands.
• Fosters mathematical communication as students describe and compare geometric constructions.

Classroom Ideas:

• Challenge students to create and name specific shapes or polygons using the elastic bands.
• Use the boards to explore symmetry by asking students to complete mirrored patterns or reflect shapes.
• Teach fractional concepts by dividing shapes on the grid and discussing part-whole relationships.
• Incorporate into a geometry rotation for exploring transformations such as flips, slides, and turns.
