My Brother Martin

This week we are reading a story about Martin Luther King Jr.  This story is unique because it is told by Martin's sister, Christine.  We get to see Martin as a mischievous little kid.  Students enjoy reading about this different side of Martin.

Because the story is centered around Martin becoming a leader, our essential question asks: What might lead a person to try to change the world?  What lessons and events led Martin to become a civil rights leader?  Let Martin Luther King Jr.'s life become an inspiration to us all.  How can we turn  our challenges into leadership opportunities?
