Martin’s Big Words: The Life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a Caldecott Honor book, Coretta Scott King Honor book, and an Orbis Pictus Award winner, tells of King’s childhood determination to use “big words” through biographical information and quotations. Using this book as well as other resources on Dr. King, students explore information on King’s “big” words 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.
