MLK Jr.

MLK Jr. is such fun and so important to teach about ~ this year I took a pinterest inspired idea to use in my classroom and it was a HIT with my kiddos.  In the past we have done this:

 

 
 
 
 
which my wonderful teacher friend Tammy Williams shared with me years ago.  Also this...
 
 
 
 
But this year we did this...
 
 
I thought it would be fun to have a response page for this egg activity so I just included it in my MLK Jr. unit.  If you purchased it or won one from me recently please go to your my purchases page and re download it.  It's a great activity that gets them thinking.  Enjoy your 3 day weekend and try this out next week. :oD

I did the Pinterest handprint craft as well. I had my kids write about their dream on the inside too. I thought they would do better with that but they pretty much repeated Martin Luther King Jr's dream. I guess I should be happy with that but I was hoping for more lol!
