The writing surface measures 100 x 80 cm, and the board sits in a pine wood frame with sturdy, chunky legs for stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Activity Board help with teaching shape?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board is designed for demonstrating geometric nets with Magnetic Polydron. Adults and children can press magnetic pieces flat onto the board to lay out a net, label faces and edges with a dry wipe pen or chalk, then lift the net away to fold it into a 3D solid. The same board works for everyday teaching with dry wipe pens or chalk, so it earns its place beyond maths lessons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor schools\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA large 100 x 80 cm surface lets a whole group see a net or shape demonstration at once.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports EYFS and KS1 maths on 2D and 3D shape, nets and properties of shape.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps Quality First Teaching by linking concrete pieces with drawn labels and diagrams.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSturdy legs give stability in busy classrooms, and two surfaces offer pen or chalk options.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUseful in SEND provision for shared, visual demonstrations at child height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor parents and home use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits home educators and childminders who already use Magnetic Polydron.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGives children a large space to arrange shapes and patterns freely.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWriting with chalk or dry wipe pens supports early mark making and fine motor control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo surfaces keep activities varied, from drawing to shape building.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for children aged 3 and over, with adult supervision.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSupporting learners with SEND and learning differences\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarge, hands-on displays help many learners with SEND and learning differences follow a maths idea step by step.
