Celebrate the National Day on Writing: Sunday, October 20

Sunday, October 20 marks The National Day on Writing, established by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE). According to the NCTE website (click here):

The National Day on Writing

• points to the importance of writing instruction and practice at every grade level, for every student and in every subject area from preschool through university,
• emphasizes the lifelong process of learning to write and composing for different audiences, purposes, and occasions, and 
• encourages Americans to write and enjoy and learn from the writing of others. 

 As an instructor of writing, I encourage you to think about the importance of writing (and reading, of course!) as you go about your activities on this beautiful autumn Sunday. 

Best,

Rebecca
