Events will include read aloud/storytelling stories about diversity, respect, kindness, inclusion and Martin Luther King Jr. himself. There will be bookmarks for people to fill out and decorate, and a table where books donated from the Braeside Book Drive will be shared.
Martin Luther King Jr. is a huge part our history. His message of kindness, justice and non-violence is for everyone, everyday. Here are the ways you can participate. •Bring a book you would like to share. Beginning on Monday, January 14, 2019, donate one of your favorite books to the bin outside of the gym. We will give you a bookmark to write your recommendation on. Write why you would like to share the book. Does it have a good message? Is it about a person you should know more about? Is it a book everyone should have in their personal library? These books will be displayed and shared at Martin Luther King’s Day of Service. •Be a part of our story time! Come as WE School/Character Crusaders share some of their favorite books with you. •Most importantly, be a part of Dr. King’s birthday celebration. From 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. there will be lots of different activities for you to take part in. From 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. there will be a program that you will surely enjoy.
