Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Today we read about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Scholastic News. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is not only a holiday, but is considered a "national day of service." The children were asked to respond to the following:

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, "Everybody can be great because everybody can serve."
Give an example of how you do (or how you can) serve your community. Include a topic sentence and at least 2 details that explain.

Have a conversation at home with your child tonight. Maybe you can choose a service project that you can work on as a family.
