Hello, my name is Kelli Stephenson.
Welcome to the Electronic Portfolio for my Unit Plan! This Unit Plan is a project in my SEC 300 course at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, where I am am enrolled as a Junior and English Major. This Unit Plan is a 10th grade poetry unit.When I graduate in May of 2013, I plan on becoming a high school English teacher here in North Carolina. I was born and raised in Johnston County, NC, where I still return each summer to work as a Camp Counselor at a YMCA Summer Day Camp (where the above photo was taken). Although I love North Carolina, I also love to travel and I can't wait to see the world. This summer I'm backpacking across Europe for two weeks, and I hope to spend a portion of my student teaching abroad. In this increasingly globalized world, I think that it's important to explore different perspectives, and I aim to do just that in this particular Unit Plan and in my teaching as a whole.
