: : : : Photo: About The Teacher Label: About The Teacher Both my parents were officers in the United States Air Force. I am, therefore, a well traveled individual. I have been to or lived in 38 of the 50 states and several foreign countries (predominately Europe). I earned my undergraduate degree at Middle Tennessee State University in English and Secondary Education. I have been teaching in Wilson County Schools for 10 years--the last 9 years I have been at Wilson Central High School. I earned my graduate degree in Educational Administration from Cumberland University in 2008. I am married and my husband and I live in Lebanon. Mission Label: Mission The English III class is an exploration of American Literature. Students will read a wide variety of literature written by american authors and explore the expansion of the English language. Students will be provided with some historical background so that they may understand and explore the author's motivations for writing and understand how politics influences literature. Additionally, students will learn to identify the public belief system of a particular historical period by analyzing literature from that time period. Students will be responsible for completing a research paper. During the junior year, the writing skills we will focus on are elements of persuasion and rhetoric. Therefore, students will write a position research paper. Each student will pick a hot-button topic that is broad enough that the student will find plenty of information for both sides of the issue. Some example topics include abortion, prayer in public schools, socialized healthcare reform, capital punishment, assisted medical suicide, etc. Specific information will be given to students in class.
