Description
Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and helping kids to apply what he stood for is an important component of your teaching. You'll get an interactive teaching slideshow to give kids background to important concepts, as well as 5 centers that are based on the events of the Selma March of 1965.
This product includes:
✅Interactive teaching slideshow - with background on Dr. King, "I Have a Dream", and on the events of the Selma March of 1965
✅5 centers
✅Images - kids respond to images of the Selma march
✅Quotes - kids illustrate a quote of choice from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
✅Poetry - kids will create a poem based on the events of the Selma march
✅People - kids will create possible quotes for people from the Selma march
✅Quilt - kids will create a quilt square based on their learning
✅Resources - to help kids with centers, such as poetic devices, info on people, and quote selections
✅Teacher directions - to help you manage and implement with success
Here is what I recommend:
⭐️Preview the teaching slides. All the responses and picture prompts are editable, so change any you'd like before assigning.
⭐️Teach the interactive lesson to give kids some background. It is interactive as it provides a place for students to respond and search for images to go along with the lesson. Project the slideshow, but give kids a copy on their digital learning platform.
⭐️As you go through the slides, you can have kids add their pictures and responses. Or, you can go through it and have them do this as a separate classwork assignment, as part of your centers, or for homework. I would take 2 days to go over the material and give kids time to respond.
⭐️Note on video links: They are all editable. Use what I have, delete, or add your own. I made the links 'ad-free" where possible.
⭐️After the lesson, get kids into centers. Print the materials that are needed and get kids into groups. Since there are 5 centers, I divide kids up based on the number of kids divided by 5. Then, I rotate them around the room. You can figure out how much time you'd like to give them. I would use at least 2-3 class periods to give kids enough time. Example: If you teach a 60-minute block and use three class periods, that is 180 minutes, so that would give kids about 35 minutes per center.
⭐️Classroom management tip: If kids finish a center early, have them go back to their slideshow and fill it in, or watch the videos as they wait.
⭐️Make some time to go over the centers.
⭐️Some of these centers would make great bulletin board displays. The quilt squares should be hung together to create a class quilt.
