I am a fifth year teacher at South Johnston High School in Johnston County, North Carolina. I currently teach 11th and 12th grade English. This plan is a more focused version of the literature-based newspaper rubric I helped to create when Johnston County area English teachers met to redefine our English curriculum in the county.
