"I Have a Dream" Concept Map Activity

Why do we not have school on Monday?

     Martin Luther King was an advocate for racial equality.  He's best known for his "I Have a Dream Speech", but what do we really know about how the most quoted part of his speech actually came to be?  The answer might surprise you. https://vimeo.com/67224181


We are going to read along with the audio of the speech's text to identify King's main idea and supporting details of his famous speech through a concept map.  https://archive.org/details/MartinLutherKing-IHaveADream

While we listen, try to highlight at least six "dreams" or goals Martin Luther King hoped would come to exist for future generations.  We will then convert your highlights to a concept wheel in small groups to be turned in at the end of class.
