Lynn was introduced to Mimio technology two years ago when she was hired by Stafford Public Schools to train teachers in the district on how to use their newly acquired Mimio equipment. Stafford now has a Mimio in every classroom in grades 1-12. Within the past two years, Lynn has provided teachers with in-class Mimio support , assistance in creating lessons using the Mimio, and weekly Mimio quick learn meetings. Recently, Lynn developed a Mimio lesson contest for the teachers she works with to build a collection of lessons to support classroom instruction. As teachers create lessons, their name is entered into a drawing to win a Mimio Pad. By the end of the school year, two lucky teachers will receive a Mimio Pad.
