EarthGen
I do a lot of work with EarthGen, but most of it isn’t easy to link to here. For the completist, or for folks who are interested in EarthGen’s work with kids, you can subscribe to their newsletter that I write every month. (Scroll to the bottom of their page to sign up.) And sometimes we share success stories on the ClimeTime website.

My review of Growth of the Soil came in at number 4 (and I think I just realized that one probably performs so well because I put “book report” in the title instead of “review”).
Finally, my examination of the Necessary and Proper Clause of the Constitution rounded out the top five. Not gonna lie, I’m a little disappointed the new content didn’t even make the list.
There wasn’t anything interesting to be found among the search terms in September, so I guess that’s a wrap.
