This lesson is awesome! It aligns to 3 NCSS Standards- #3, 5, 6. Students will watch a clip from the PBS special "Martin Luther: Reluctant Revolutionary," filling in a Viewing Chart (included). Afterward students write an essay. As an extension of the lesson, students interview an adult, asking how their enviornment and social issues of the time influenced their life and decisions.

These are a set of out-of-print guides made by the NYC Board of Education in 1993-1994. They are full of primary sources, short text selections and activities which many teachers have found very useful. Although designed for 7th and 8th grade they can be modified for high school and elementary school. Many teachers have used these over the last 17 years to help them develop their lessons. They are large files so they will take a few minutes to open. Note that both sets follow the same format but the 8th grade guides were done with a modern text style and therefore "looks" much better.
