Celebrating MLK!

We read a few non-fiction stories about Dr. King. One of them being Martin's Big Words. It was really precious to hear their sweet hearts talking about how sad it must have been to live in a world where ALL people weren’t treated equally. We brainstormed words and phrases to sum up what we learned about MLK.
 
 
 We also did this awesome egg activity to teach diversity. I showed them a brown egg and a white egg and we talked about the similarities and differences between the two. The only big difference being color. Then we broke the two eggs, and I asked them if they could tell which yolk was from the brown and which was from the white. Of course, no one could tell! One student even shared that "we all have the same heart". So sweet, I know.
