Grades 4-8: How Big Are Martin Luther King's Big Words?

The struggle to change the conditions in America, and to win equal protection under the law for citizens of all races, formed the backdrop of Martin Luther King’s short life. It may be hard to believe that less than 50 years ago, America had separate drinking fountains for whites and blacks and colored balconies in movie theaters. Using the book, Martin’s Big Words , the students will come to an understanding of King’s childhood determination to use “big words” through biographical information and quotations. Using this book as well as other resources on Dr. King, students explore information on King’s “big words” and then will write about their own “big words” and dreams for the future. Program materials will be provided.
