Martin Luther King

I know I'm a little behind, but I wanted to share this, this is what we did for MLK day.  I read a couple of stories to the kids(see below), we talked about what Martin Luther King wanted for all people and then did a little writing activity, followed by this cute craft.  The handprints are supposed to make a heart as well when turned upside down.  I saw this egg activity last year on someone elses blog, but I can't remember who :(  Anyway, I wrote it in my plans to remember for this year, because I LOVED IT.  So when I was writing up this years, I did it!  What a great lesson to teach.....even though the eggs are differenent colors, when we break them open they are the same......just like people and we need to be kind to each other no matter what we look like.  The kids thought it was the coolest thing ever!
