Geoboard 7 x 7
The Geoboard is a wooden support on which dowels are fixed, in a grid network.
In the version made in the 3 P'tits Bois workshop , it is:
- mounted with 49 trunnions in beech with a diameter of 8 mm,
- supplied with 35 colored elastics , rubber
- delivered in an "Oekotex" cotton pouch.
- accompanied by a booklet containing at least 7 models.
Size = 19 X 19 cm (approx)
Handmade, with fir 3 ply 19mm thick.
It allows you to experience:
- free creation , figurative or not,
- the reproduction of figures, with the models provided, in particular
- the construction of geometric figures,
- symmetry thanks to the odd number of rows of dowels
It also allows you to work on fine motor skills , concentration , spatial identification, the first notions of geometry (square, rectangle, triangle, etc.), but also working memory. .
It is possible to experiment with itineraries (move forward 4 straight ahead, turn left, go forward 1...)
The Geoboard is a tool that can be used until middle school.
It comes with a usage suggestion sheet.
It is entirely possible to build a different size or different number of trunnions. Contact me for any special request :)
This material is not a toy, it should always be used under the supervision of an adult.
