LEAGUE CITY, Texas (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Learning magazine has selected the DynaNotes™ SmartClings™ – Graphs instructional kit as a winner of the Learning® Magazine 2010 Teachers’ Choice(SM) Awards for the Classroom. According to Heather Crews, Learning magazine Award Coordinator, the teacher-judges from across the United States evaluated hundreds of products on “quality, instructional value, ease of use, and innovation” to identify “the very best in classroom-tested, teacher-recommended products.” The magazine will spotlight the award winners in its January 2010 issue and on its Web site (www.learningmagazine.com).

The DynaNotes SmartClings – Graphs instructional kit, designed for elementary and middle school math and science instruction, allows students to construct and interpret graphs using colorful static cling pieces.

The visual and tactile-kinesthetic SmartClings are effective for students with special needs and are also available in Spanish.
