Martin Luther King, Jr. Packet

I can't believe it's already the new year! I don't know about you, but the minute my Christmas Break ended, I was focused on that next lovely day off: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day! 

Here's a packet that might come in handy for you as we celebrate the many accomplishments of this amazing man. It's one of my Famous American Packets and it gives you a variety of hands-on activities and worksheets to use as you study this historical figure.
