This is a 2014 printing combining the activities originally included in the two books Editor in Chief C1 and Editor in Chief C2.

Editor in Chief® improves your child's grammar, punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and attention to detail. The stories involve mixed-skills practice, starting with easier errors and becoming more challenging as students become adept at the editing process. If your child has not had a lot of exposure to grammar and editing we recommend starting with a lower level even if your child is in high school. We've given this book to adults who work as editors and they've found it challenging.

Students identify and circle errors in each story. Then they insert, modify, or delete punctuation, words, and short phrases to make corrections. An editing checklist and annotated guide to grammar, usage, and punctuation are provided to help focus students' thinking and allow them to match their answers to applicable rules. Detailed answers are also included.
