Juniors and seniors at GHS had the opportunity to meet with UC representative Blaine Kelley to explore the wide range of college programs available at the University of Cincinnati's main and branch campuses. #IgniteInspireInstill


A creative 6th grader in our STEM lab decided to get inventive with our wall clock! Using cardboard, she built a Grandfather clock for Mrs. McGinnis—showing off her problem-solving and engineering skills! #STEM #IgniteInspireInstill




Our fourth graders explored weathering and erosion with a fun, hands-on cookie activity! They watched the cookies break down and observed erosion in real time. #IgniteInspireInstill






The enthusiasm of sixth-grade students was palpable as they embarked on the process of printing frames for their wearable droids. This innovation was made possible by Ohio Code Scholar, providing them with invaluable opportunities to explore 3D printing, breadboarding, circuitry, coding sequences, and various related topics. #IgniteInspireInstill

STEM students engage with dominos as they work on communication and collaboration. Each student builds their wall and then works with their team of four to connect the walls. Their patience is evident as they meticulously build their walls, highlighting the necessity of collaboration and effective communication in group activities. These resources were borrowed from the BCESC. You can also borrow resources by visiting the STEAMOLOGY tab on their website. #IgniteInspireInstill







Math is fun in Mrs. Scott's 1st-grade class! Our young learners practiced adding within 10 with the game 'What's Behind My Back?' They used cubes to break apart numbers and discover how many their partner was hiding. Hands-on learning in action! #IgniteInspireInstill










Our 6th graders are diving into the world of circuits! 🛠️ This hands-on learning prepares them for the exciting challenge of wiring their robots. The future engineers are ready to light up their creativity! #IgniteInspireInstill

Our 4th graders just served up something super special in art class! 🎨 They put their new sewing skills to the test and created these adorable pizza pillows. 🍕🧵 Check out these slices of creativity! #IgniteInspireInstill



STEM students enjoyed a visit from Brown County Library. They participated in a read-aloud about STEM careers and participated in hands-on activities to construct models of homes and bridges. #IgniteInspireInstill






Fourth graders are creating their micro-economy in STEM class to learn basic economic principles. Thank you to Becky Cropper & Beverly Holsted for facilitating the mini-society! Students explored how the cost of goods is affected by supply and demand. #IgniteInspireInstill



Elementary students are learning how STEM shows up in different careers. They are looking for community members to share pictures, emails, or prerecorded videos showcasing STEM in their work. Having conversations about career goals early on helps students develop communication skills and goal-setting abilities. As our students learn more about the world, their career goals will evolve, helping them gain confidence and a better understanding of their potential future.
We would love to hear from you at brenda.mcginnis@gtown.k12.oh.us about how science, engineering, and technology show up in your day!
