Geoboard.notebook

This is simply a 5x5 geoboard that can be used on the Smartboard.  I use the straight line tool to represent the rubber bands.  I use this when I do not have internet access while using the Smartboard.  If there is access to internet there are better interactive ones to use.  (This links to NLVM site and you can select one of the Geoboards there.)
