Whether you have to work tomorrow or have the day off in honor of Martin Luther King Jr., chances are that you might want to teach your students a little more about the man and his accomplishments. Here are a few resources and freebies to help you with your lesson planning this week:
Panicked Teacher has this poem and close reading activity all about Martin Luther King Jr.
