Do you struggle to incorporate real-world, authentic reading in your Spanish classroom? This amazing interpretive reading activity about the life and accomplishments of Martin Luther King, Jr. will get your kids reading and analyzing an authentic resource from the Spanish-speaking world.

In this activity, your students will:

This reading and writing activity makes a great addition to any unit on human rights or global challenges, from Spanish 2 through AP (as an introduction to the unit). It also makes a great pre-reading activity for an article about human rights or the life of MLK, Jr (there are links to two suggested articles in the product and a short video). There are two versions of the handout: version 1 has all directions and questions in English, while version 2 has all directions and questions in Spanish.

PLEASE NOTE: the infographic is NOT included with this product due to copyright laws and you must access it at the following link: infographic. I would recommend printing and laminating the infographic, projecting it on your board, or posting it to Google Classroom, Edmodo, or Schoology for students to access it. Each handout includes the link to the image at the top as well as a QR code to the image at the bottom.

There are 38 posters or task cards that include many of the key events from the beginning emancipation proclamation and speeches by Frederick Douglass, to the heroic actions of Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, to the more recent Black Lives Matter movement and George Floyd protests.

The posters look great as a display in the classroom and the cards are a brilliant introduction to the Civil Rights Movement. The displays and cards come both with dates and without dates, so the students can research the dates online before sorting the timeline. The cards look even better when laminated.

Included in this resource:

• 38 Full Page Posters with dates for display
• 38 Full Page Posters without dates
• 38 Task Cards with dates for a sorting activity
• 38 Task Cards without dates for a research and sorting activity

This timeline of events is by no means exhaustive, as countless individuals and events contributed to the Civil Rights Movement's progress and impact.
