The following is a video and lesson plan on the Martin Luther King Jr. "I Have a Dream" speech. The lesson plan is to have students contextualize the civil rights movement into their own lives and create a 1-page reflection on their own dreams, goals, and aspirations. The lesson plan could be adapted to have students create their own "I Have a Dream" speech, on changes they would like to see happen in our country. media type="custom" key="649735"

The following video is a short history of the role Rosa Parks played in the Civil Rights Movement. media type="custom" key="649765"

The following video is a photo-story of Martin Luther King Jr. It was made for a middle school social studies class. I like the video for the Martin Luther King, Jr. speech, it could be used to model a photo-story, and incorporated into a lesson plan that has students create their own photo-story. media type="custom" key="649777"

The following video is about the Underground Railroad, an early form of civil rights. This video could be used in a lesson plan covering a historical timeline of African American History/events leading up to the Civil Rights Movement. media type="custom" key="603005"
