For lots of us, the autumn season is the best time of year – cooler temps mean cozier indoor days with blankets and hot apple cider as well as fresh, crisp outdoor fun. Autumn also brings October – and Halloween! While you’re getting festive at home with your porch pumpkins and telephone pole witches and scary movies, why not get your students gung-ho for ghouls too – by using STEM?

When you hear the word proofreading, you probably have flashbacks to writing essays in middle school English class or stumbling through reading your essay aloud. Maybe you think about how more people on social media should proofread their own posts more often. I’d be willing to bet that a lot of people associate proofreading with spell-check and nothing more. But there’s so much more to it, including its own holiday! National Proofreading Day is on Friday, March 8. It's probably not a coincidence that National Grammar Day falls within the same week (March 4). Our Pitsco Editing department is celebrating big this week!
