I have a had a great time studying Martin Luther King Jr. with my students, they are so intentional and curious, I love reading and researching with them. The timing great because we are starting our unit on great citizens, so of course we started with MLK as the first example...we even got to share our learning and work with the school in an assembly...I was very proud!
I hope you take the time if your haven't yet, to talk with your class about some of the deeper issues associated with civil rights, they can handle it. MLK wasn't perfect, no one is, but he is a great example of a tireless leader and committed activist.
