Martin Luther King Jr. – Black History Month – MLK Writing

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. and the celebration of his life, this MLK writing activity for Kindergarten students is a meaningful and engaging way to engage your students.

As part of this Martin Luther King craft, students will create a crown to symbolize their aspirations or acts of kindness, inspired by the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr.

They will then have the opportunity to write about their dream or how they demonstrate kindness, just as Martin Luther King Jr. encouraged us to do.

This is a great way to get your Kindergarteners excited about honoring the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and thinking about ways to make a positive impact on their community
