We are so excited for a great year of learning ahead! Here is a little about your third grade team of teachers.
3A Katie Tonemah
This is my fourth year at Town Center. We are doing great things at this school and I am proud to be a part of this community of educators and learners. We are going to have a great year in 3rd grade! I can't wait to see your children grow and I can't wait to get to know them.
3B Logan Heath
This is my first year at Town Center. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to instill a love of math and science in your children. I feel so lucky to be a part of such an amazing school, and I look forward to a fantastic school year with wonderful 3rd graders!
3C Beth Parker
This is my 16th year in education and my 9th year at TCE! I am so excited to begin this school year with this amazing group of third graders! Reading is my favorite thing to do ( other than shopping!) so I am very excited to teach the kids in Language Arts and Social Studies. My son is a kindergartener this year as well here at TCE. So not only do I get to teach at one of the best schools in Coppell, I get to be a parent here too!!
3D Courtney Rice
This will be my fourth year of teaching at Town Center. I absolutely adore being at this school and learning along side such wonderful educators. I love teaching math and science because I love getting to explore new ways to solve problems. I'm looking forward to a great year of learning and growing with your children!

Here's a peek at what we are learning this week!
This week in reading, learners will understand literacy in their
own lives. We will discuss our favorite books and how we can be lifelong
readers and writers.
This week in writing, learners will begin to learn and review
grammar and parts of speech, including complete sentences, nouns, verbs,
adjectives, and adverbs.
This week in social studies, learners will begin understanding
their place and importance in our community.
In Math we will be learning all about place value. Our learners will be able to read and write numbers up to the hundred thousands place! They will be able to represent these numbers in multiple ways.
This week in Science we will be setting up our science journals. We will also be exploring the scientific method and learning about science safety. We will start our unit all about matter this week as well.
We look forward to a wonderful year of learning and exploring with your children! Please let us know if you have any questions.
