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.
