In honor of Black History Month and reading My Brother Martin and Me by Christine King Farris (Martin's sister) in our fourth grade Journeys book, we decided to compare and contrast Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Nelson Mandela.
My class is a 1:1 Chromebook class, so we did this assignment together as a class on Google Docs.
If you purchase this item on TPT, you can easily copy and paste from the PDF into Google Docs.
If you haven't used Google Docs as a class, I suggest going over a procedure for erasure. If someone accidentally deletes the graphic organizer, we all stop immediately and take hands off the keyboards until the mistake can be fixed by the person who deleted or until the previous version can be restored.
The great thing about this lesson is that I have adapted it for you so that it can be used in whole or in parts, independently or in small or whole groups. This would even be great if you homeschool! Rubrics are included for different expectations. You also don't have to search for resources to make sure they are appropriate since I've included links for you!
See more pages and download this resource in my TPT store.
We also watched his I Have a Dream speech
and made this beautiful dove bulletin board.
Students wrote ways they will and already do use peaceful, powerful words.
Who else would you like to see included in another compare and contrast project?
