These Martin Luther King Jr. Day activities were a wonderful addition to my classroom! The mix of math, reading, and writing made it easy to integrate learning across subjects while honoring an important historical figure. My students were especially engaged with the “I Have a Dream” writing, and it sparked thoughtful discussions. A meaningful and easy-to-use resource I’ll definitely continue using each year!
