We have begun our study of the Civil Rights Movement with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who we honor each January.

After learning about Dr. King, my students have made the following statements:

Hizela: “Dr. King was a great leader.”

Sebastian: “Martin Luther King Jr.” wanted to make laws fair for everybody.”

Jocely: “Dr. King wanted us to look at the INSIDE of people, instead of the OUTSIDE.”

Natalie: “Dr. King wanted laws to be the same for everyone.”
