Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day in America.   It’s the perfect day to show your students his beautifully written and spoken “I Have a Dream” speech (click that link for audio, text, and video of the speech).

There are many lesson plans on Martin Luther King and civil rights online – far too many for me to screen for quality.  Just Google “Martin Luther King lesson plans” to find what might suit your needs.  If you have a favorite resource, please do share it with us in the comments.

American Rhetoric, the site where I found the Martin Luther King, Jr. speech, is worth surfing through to listen to the other 5,000+ speeches on the site.  A good place to start:  Top 100 Speeches (Dr. Martin Luther King’s is the #1 speech).

    I doubt there is another speech more famous than Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream.” Though, I think the best speech I have ever heard was Steve Jobs speech to the graduating class when he was just recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

Freely Educate is written for those, like our family, who don't want the box. There are many places for "box-thinkers" to go. This place is for those who think outside the box. I hope to give you affirmation and advice on bravely choosing to educate creatively and individually. - Lori Seaborg
