Nelson Primary & Grantsburg Elementary Staff like to share in the Halloween fun!
Community Bank President Ted Gerber spoke with our 7th graders about his entrepreneurial experience. He shared his thoughts on the risks and rewards of operating a business and candidly answered questions from his audience.
Thank you, Mr. Gerber, for your time and mentorship!
High school physics students enjoyed their recent unit on centripetal force in a lab and the dizzying activity of playing catch while spinning in a circle. Try this one at home to see the impact of centripetal force on the ball!
Kindergartners at Nelson Primary tested their sense of taste in a fun and engaging activity as part of their current unit on their five senses! Students tasted sour, sweet, bitter, and salty foods, and kept a record of whether they enjoyed the taste.
2nd Grade has been studying the states of matter. Yesterday’s focus was the state of gas.
Today we did a spooky experiment to see what would happen when we mix water, vinegar, and baking soda in a Frankenstein ziploc baggie.
It wasn’t the explosion they anticipated, but we observed the gasses expand and max out the bag!

Topics in Science students at GHS created sun prints, which are created by making a photo (light) sensitive solution! ☀️
They brought in and/or created objects to place over the paper, and then exposed their print to UV light. Doing so created images based on what portions were exposed to UV light!

3rd Grade went to Crex Meadows on a field trip this October. Students could trek through the pond to explore and identify invertebrates, a connection to our Animal Classification unit. Students also were able to learn and apply their knowledge of survival skills in activities such as building shelters!
GHS students in Physical Science used a melting point apparatus to determine the identity of unknown substances. They practiced how to load capillary tubes and became familiar with the sensors that help them collect data! 🔬
