How is the Martin's Big Words Unit organized?

The bundle includes 50 pages. Your students will have the opportunity for learning many comprehension skills and strategies, write about Martin’s life and work, and deepen their understanding of how important it is to treat everyone equally.

The unit comes in digital for Google Slides TM as well as in pdf for printing. I suggest using it for MLK Jr. Day or for Black History Month. A preview of the unit included is attached that shows all of the activities included.
