Dr. King, Jr.
This year our class used 2 text structures to compare and contrast while while we learned about Dr. King. Also, the class read a short biography on the life of Ghandi. Students listened for similarities. In addition to this, our class learned the true definition of equality and justice as Core Democratic Values in our country.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Assembly
Our class collaborated and wrote a poem using figurative language about Dr. King titled,The Man, the Leader, Our King. Also, Juno wrote an original poem about Dr. King titled,Peaceful as a lamb. In addition to those original poems, presenters from our class read a former Pattengill's poem titled, A man named Martin.
The man, The leader, Our King
By Puma Thinkers 2014-2015
His courage was iron,
His Faith was steel,
Yet, he was very real
Strong like a lion but
peaceful like a lamb
What he did was not a scam
He spoke a trillion times
Spreading his wisdom
Louder than the strongest
wind
His words will never freeze
Unlike a winter breeze
Led his troops against
segregation,
In a cruel nation
Fighting for human rights
Words not violence
Love not hate,
Peace not war,
Died with a pure but cloudy
heart,
With a dream tucked inside
Forever more,
His dream will soar
The Man, the leader, Our King
A Man Named Martin
By Jake W.
Former Pattengill
student from
Ms. Hubbard’s fifth grade class
A man named Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr.
A great man
A man that will not fight
He will use words
Not weapons
He is a
Hero
To me
His words started a
Fire
In people’s hearts in a good
way
He wanted hope to make the
world fair
I wonder, I
wonder
What the world would be like
Without
Martin
