See What Other Teachers Are Saying:
⭐ So glad I purchased this resource! My former Martin Luther King resources were a bit dated. These were much more updated and the students found them exciting!
⭐ Colorful, informative, and easy to read. Also had great activities to complete with timelines and information digitally and in person.
⭐ Great resource. We made the mini books and the timeline was my favorite activity. We made a large one for our wall and referred back to it during all of our review warm-ups. The writing pages were ideal for my students. Love this resource and can't wait to use it again next year.
