The purpose of this work was to present the geoboard teaching material, showing its contributions to mathematics education, in an attempt to make the material more known and used in the classroom, since it is of great importance in the construction of knowledge, helping to break down the barriers of traditional teaching. As well as the dissemination of mosaics, it provides some examples of activities that can be explored on the geoboard and geometric grids. After a prior mathematical foundation on the recognition of the plane with regular and irregular polygons; moving on to the art of creating mosaic patterns, in the field of geometry, the main focus concerns planar tessellations, using geometric grids and the geoboard as pedagogical resources. In Elementary School, it is the responsibility of both the Art and Mathematics teachers to develop the geometric-spatial skills of the students.
