Have you ever listened closely to learning in action? Mrs. Clark’s second graders explored sound and vibration using tuning forks, rubber bands, and rulers — and the classroom was full of "oohs" and "ahhs"! 📏🎵✨


Ready, set, play! ❄️🏅 Coach Ramsey turned PE into a Winter Olympics — students tackled slalom ski/ski jump, team bobsled, curling, speed skating & hockey! ⛷️🏒🥌 Check out the action in the video! 🔗 https://youtu.be/kwv8Nhdwp9Q

Super Bowl Day in Ms. Bohrer’s class was a blast! 🏈
They learned a little Super Bowl history, completed review activities, built goal posts for their paper football game, and finished the day with their own little Super Bowl party and snacks. So much fun learning and celebrating together!

💙TEACHER TUESDAY📚
Ms. Amanda Oberle teaches 5th grade ELA at Surf City Elementary. She creates a classroom where students feel comfortable reading aloud, sharing their thinking, and taking part in discussions. She also encourages students to take ownership of their work and treat each other with respect, which helps build a strong classroom community.
Visitors often notice how engaged students are during reading circles and small-group activities. Students work together, support one another, and stay focused on the lesson. The room is structured, but still allows students to feel confident and involved.
Ms. Oberle is also known for bringing a fun personality into the school day. One example staff shared is her tradition of wearing a different holiday outfit each day in December. It’s a small thing, but it brings smiles and helps students feel connected.
Thank you, Ms. Oberle, for the positive environment you create for students at Surf City Elementary. 💛
