Students in Salem’s PLTW (Project Lead The Way) Design and Modeling class have been working to design and create a prototype of a foot orthosis for a client suffering from spastic hemiplagia, a disorder associated with cerebral palsy. The orthotic device had criteria and constraints students had to work through. They also worked on learning how the design process works. This is just the beginning of a exciting and NEW program for students to participate in at Salem, with Mr. Johnson leading the way! Stay tuned for more incredible projects as the year progresses!

Salem 6th graders started the week learning about Growth Mindset. They also learned that MATH stands for Mistakes Allow Thinking To Happen. Mrs. Fuller gave all of her 6th grade math students an eraser to remind them that mistakes mean learning is happening!


Fifth graders are working hard in their Earth and Sun Science Unit. Yesterday, Mrs. Zuehlsdorf, Mrs. Cummings, and Ms. McGrath's fifth graders took the science classroom outside! The goal was to investigate, "How and why does our shadow change during the day?"
