Students in Mrs. Stephenson’s honors chemistry class have been learning about half reactions (the movement of electrons from one metal to another). To celebrate the holidays and take a break from balancing all sorts of fun equations, students are applying their knowledge to make holiday ornaments. Galvanized flashing is reacted with hydrochloric acid to remove the zinc coating on the metal. Then the metal is placed into a copper sulfate solution where the copper adheres to the flashing to create a “rust” colored surface. Students got to design their ornament however they wanted- any exposed metal that is not covered in tape will eventually be covered in copper.
UNITY (United National Indian Tribal Youth) has been recognized by the Redwood Falls Rotary Club for their dedication and service to the community with a $75.00 Rotary donation.
Congratulations to our 12/21/22 Reede Gray Cardinal Code Shoutouts this week. Our Character Strong focus this month is on Empathy. Empathy is understanding and connecting with other people’s feelings. Our students have been working on taking the time to understand and connect with others. It isn’t just thinking about how others feel… it is taking action. Our students this week are growing in their Empathy each day. We are very proud of each of them! *Be Respectful *Be Responsible *Be Safe #ReedeGrayElementary #CharacterStrong #AlwaysTheCardinalWay #CardinalCode

Students in RVHS's Intro to Medical Careers class travelled to the Cadaver Lab at SDSU last week. Pictures were not allowed, but students were able to learn about anatomy. Here are some quotes from students:
"The cadaver lab was a vivid experience for me. It was definitely one of the coolest things that I have ever seen in my entire life. I vividly remember holding the different joints, front chest plate, livers, lungs, arm, heart, and brain.
"Just to see that this is all so real gave me a different perspective on anatomy. I have a lot more respect for anatomy after seeing the entire cadaver experience as a whole.
*Seeing the difference between heart sizes was super cool too. Seeing the artificial valve inside the heart was very interesting. So many of these things we’ve seen on models or already learned about, but it is so much different when you get to see them in person on a real part of the body.
Save the date for our Family Game Night!
