Wow, Martin Luther King had a lot of dreams
didn't he?  He had a dream about what the
world should be like and what America should be
like. He even had a dream about his
children and what he hoped they one day
would be able to do.
If Dr. King was alive today, do you think
he would say his dream had come true?
Do you think he would still be making
speeches about all men and women being
equal, no matter what the color of
their skin? Maybe he will maybe he would
be out there making speeches about other
problems in the world and how we can
overcome them.
Maybe he would have different dreams
for his country and the world.
What about you?
What do you think will make the world a
perfect place to live in?
Would it be no more wars? Or no more
poverty? Or no more crime? I'm sure there are a lot
of things that you could think of, but for
this activity, you just choose one.
Which problem is
the most important? There is no right or
wrong answer.
You have to decide for yourself, then you
are going to write a speech like Dr. King. In
your speech, describe your dream for the world, for
America, for the school, or for your family.
While are you writing your speech think
about how you could make this dream come
true.
Do you have what it takes to be a hero?
