Martin Luther King Jr.



Last week we started our unit on Martin Luther King Jr..  We read several non fiction books and had some really great discussions.  I decided that instead of a pattern or just another color sheet that I would show my class, step-by-step, how to draw a portrait.  So I demonstrated on my elmo as they followed my directions at their desks.  The outcome was awesome!  Just look at all the cute MLK's in our hallway.  Then I had write three facts about Dr. King and write them on their graphic organizers.  They didn't have a problem coming up with three, they wanted to write more facts!  I think I'll have to make a new organizer with room for more facts for our next study.
