He Had A Dream...

We started studies of MLK Jr. today in Social Studies. We consulted Tim and Moby over at Brainpop and also brainstormed some facts we already knew about his life and great work. Then we listened to some music form the Civil Rights Era. We know about his famous "I Have A Dream" speech. Here is the speech in case you haven't heard it for a while...it sure is moving.


(The video is from Youtube.com)








What change do you wish to see in the world? What is your plan to make that change happen?




Assignment Notes: If you did not finish your iPod lab in class, 107, please view these 2 vids and finish your graphic organizer. This assignment is due on Monday for room 107. Room 110 should have turned it in on Tuesday.

California Dreamin'


Our Para, Ms. Monagas, had to leave us recently to relocate to California. We miss her a lot, but wish her the best.


Feel free to leave a comment telling a good memory you have about Ms. M.
