National Grammar Day

March 4, Monday

National Grammar Day is observed in the United States annually on March 4. It was established in 2008 by Martha Brockenbrough, an American author whose book Things That Make Us [Sic] is dedicated to common grammar mistakes. She is also the founder of the Society for the Promotion of Good Grammar (SPOGG).

According to Brockenbrough, the main goal of National Grammar Day is to help students with their grammar in a lively and positive way. Language is not something to be afraid of, it is something to be celebrated, and National Grammar Day is the perfect day to do it.
