Retired teacher inspires students by ‘launching eggs with lighter fluid’

Often students begrudge attending a science assembly but retired physics teacher Glenn Govertson provides a unique experience that makes learning about physics easy and enjoyable. Known as Mr. G during his presentation, Govertson uses ordinary, everyday items to create fantastical displays that engage students to power their inner ‘lightbulb’. PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Labs at Sentinel High School in Missoula, Montana explore Mr. G’s entertaining curriculum.
