Lesson Plans - JanuaryStudents will learn about the pain and injustice of segregation. Students read, listen to, or view King’s speech and pay close attention to his word use and use of literary devices. They analyze King’s definitions of freedom, justice, discrimination, and dreams as demonstrated by the details in his speech. They read an excerpt from Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech and note the “big” words. Students then choose one of two options: (1) they write about their own “big” words and dreams in stapled or stitched books, or (2) they construct found poems using an excerpt from one of King’s speeches. Students will review Dr. King’s life. Walk with Martin Luther King, Jr. on his historic march on Washington, hear parts of his inspirational speech, “I Have a Dream” and envision your own dreams of freedom for all Americans and the people of the world. |
