Finn's Challenge-- Aldridge will participate in the Finn's Challenge as part of the Kids Heart Challenge with American Heart Association. For all students of each grade level that has completed at least 75% of the Finn's Challenge will be entered into a drawing to see which student from each grade level will join in on silly stringing Coach Hale at our 3rd Nine Week assembly. The grade level with the most classroom participation of Finn's Challenge will join Ms. Buhl for breakfast.

Let's support our Aldridge Heart Warriors and the American Heart Association in making healthy choices and learning the best ways to save a life!

Please assist your student with learning their multiplication facts. It is critical that our third grade students are fluent with their facts ,as this will enable them to be prepared for 4th grade! We have flash cards to send home and their are many websites online that they may use to practice with fluency.

Students need to be studying their multiplication facts. We will quiz on Thursdays. They will have 30 seconds to complete each test, starting with two's and going up to 12's. They will be earning all of the items to make an ice cream sundae. We will celebrate in May!
