Rushville Elementary had the privilege of hosting a couple of very special visitors this past week. Mr. Mills' wife, Lori, brought their therapy dog, Gator, to listen to the fantastic readers in Kindergarten and First Grade. The students were beyond excited to have a new reading buddy and Gator enjoyed all of the wonderful stories that were read to him. What a fun morning!

There are BIG happenings in the first grade classroom at Rushville Elementary ! The students have been working hard on two digit plus two digit addition with regrouping (which is a second grade skill). Mr. Mills noticed their hard work and gave them a math challenge!! He presented them with a task of adding three digit numbers. The kids were so excited and took on the challenge like true mathematicians. They looked at the problems with a growth mindset and completed them with accuracy, even though the tasks were a couple grade levels above their own! Way to go first graders! Mr. Mills will have another challenge after Spring Break! Reading is also VERY important in first grade. The students are becoming strong, fluent readers. We had time today to finish a couple of books we've started. Great job, First Grade!
