STUDENTS LEARN 180 NEW WORDS This year, Salem High students were presented with a new way of learning and improving their vo- cabulary skills. This instruction came in the way of morning an- nouncements. Each day a new word would be given, and the meaning of the word was present- ed the next morning, along with a new word to study. The program, entitled “180 Words to a Better Vocabulary, was begun so as to give students who attended Salem a better awareness of the use of the English language. To help students learn these words, teachers made it common practice to use the “word of the day” at least once during their les- sons, and some went as far as to give tests and quizzes over these words, making it necessary for their students to learn the mean- ings if they were to pass. The daily game also reached to the public, in that The Salem News printed the words in each paper, giving the community a chance to build its vocabulary skills right along with the stu- dents. In the end, everyone had the benefits of 180 new words. (At left, Mike O'Brian brushes up his knowledge of vocabulary.)
