Martin Luther King Jr. Necklaces!

We celebrated Martin Luther King Jr. Day today in a unique way in Room 209. We started with a reading of "Martin's Big Words", a pointed reading of his famous "I Have a Dream" speech (which gave most of us "goosies"!), listened to the actual audio of the speech and then gathered all our knowledge into the amazing necklaces you'll see below.

Each student created at least three pendants on his or her necklace, one representing the life of MLK Jr., one representing his words and one representing his impact on the world or on US!
