Are you looking for an inspiring bulletin board kit for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day which has crafts and focuses on kindness and making a difference in the world?
Then you’ll love this classroom display which comes with three inspiring quotes to choose from, or use them all because they’re all so good! There are three crafts for children to write on, color and cut out which are inspired by these quotes and three photos of Martin Luther King, Jr.
**Ideas for using each quote:
**
•“I have a dream…” quote and full quote and a dove craft (with and without a prompt). This is great for focusing on how we can make the world a better place.
•“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.” Great to use with the dove or earth for focusing on kindness or how we can make a difference.
•“If you can’t be a sun, be a star. Be the best of whatever you are.” Comes with the star craft with “I’m a star at…” or “I’m great at…” and is ideal for focusing on our strengths or ways to be kind.
What’s included?
3 photos of Martin Luther King, Jr.
3 inspiring quotes
3 crafts
Display letters (1 word per page and 1 letter per page, black and outline)
Spotty border
I hope your children are inspired and enjoy writing about what they can do to make a difference.
Inspire your students with this pack of 6 posters about Martin Luther King Jr., who was a man of great character and an exceptional orator whose words inspired many during his lifetime and continue to be a source of inspiration for us today.
I chose the quotes on these posters because they have the potential to motivate our students to have good character and to do good in the world. As such, they would make a great starting point for a discussion around ways to make the world a better place, small acts of kindness that make a difference, or dreams they might have for their future.
These would look great in the hallway or on a classroom or office door.
What’s included?
One portrait poster
Five posters with quotes
Color (bright, boho, neutrals, 70s vibe) and ink saver versions (“I have a dream” poster is ink saver only)
1 per page, and 2 per page so you can choose the size you like best
