Using geoboards with rubber bands to create images and designs not only promotes fine motor skills in your students, but it is also a valuable tool that helps develop creativity, planning skills, problem solving and mathematical thinking. In my own classroom, this station activity is part of my morning work. Students are given a task card with a picture to use as a guide, but if the design does not turn out exactly like the picture or if they use different colored rubber bands, it’s still ok. Valuable skills are still being utilized. My students love this hands-on activity and are completely engaged with each challenge.

You can simply place the task cards in a container with basic geoboard base plates and a variety of rubber bands of various sizes and colors.
