MLK Week: Beloved Community Teach-In

From the venue:

The purpose of the Beloved Community Teach-In is to educate K-12 students about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mrs. Coretta Scott King’s legacies and to champion the completion of their unfinished work. Our goal is to establish an annual day of action and advocacy for creating the Beloved Community. The King Center has educators, trainers, lesson plans, and other resources for facilitating Teach-In discussions. In keeping with the theme, K-12 lesson plans for the 2024 Teach-In will reinforce the knowledge, skills, and dispositions students need to not only be positive contributors to the creation of the Beloved Community but also to succeed in college, careers, and civic life. For example, early childhood lesson plans will focus on the building blocks of character, sharing, caring, and cooperation, while middle and secondary lesson plans will focus on active listening, showing empathy and interdependence.

Full lesson plans with objectives, activities, and measurable outcomes will be sent upon registration. To join The King Center, along with educational institutions and organizations around the globe, for the 2024 Beloved Community Teach-In, please register at www.thekingcenter.org.
