Welcome to my Unit Plan. This plan outlines a week in a World History class. My name is Kyle Cross, or Coach Cross. I am currently enrolled at UNCW in an attempt to get my teaching licensure. I graduated from N.C. State University in December of 2012 with a bachelors degree in Sociology and a minor in Coaching Education. My passion in life has been coaching since I was a junior in high school. It's hard to believe that I have been coaching for almost 8 years now. I really enjoy the process of coaching, where I take a group of kids and bring them together as a collective unit. I love teaching athletes the concept of hard work and above all else I love seeing the transformation that takes place in these kids lives when they know someone believes in them. My goal is to take what I have learned from coaching into the classroom and positively impact kids that I would not have come into contact with if I had only been coaching. I would very much like to teach Social Studies at the high school level and continue to help students and athletes develop in the classroom, on the playing field and in every other walk of life.
