Unit 2: American Romanticism
Hello! Welcome my English III Unit Plan on American Romanticism. The Romanticism Era revolutionized American Literature through the rebellious beliefs and ideas voiced using a wide array of literary techniques and structures. In this unit, students learn the impact the authors of the Romantic Era had on American Literature and the historical events and struggles that motivated their writing. Just as there is diversity within the voices of the Romantic Era, I have aimed to use diversity within the lessons of this unit in order to give students multiple perspectives of the literary works of the time period. I am working towards a degree in English-Secondary Education and I hope to be able to impact students using literature and writing in a way that inspires them and motivates them to explore and question rather than settling for what they are told or what they read. I hope that I have mirrored this educational goal of mine in my Unit Plan and that you find it to be something that would be successful in the
classroom, enjoy!
