Discrimination Discussion and Posters

Objective: Students will reinforce content through practice.
Activity: Students create sayings and posters that encourage integration and hang these throughout the halls. Students look in newspapers and on news programs and find as many cases of discriminations as possible. These news stories should be discussed with the class. Students make speeches for or against integration of schools at a mock school board meeting. Given the situation that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is sick, students write a speech to be delivered to the crowd in Montgomery, Alabama.
Evaluation: Quality and accuracy of practice.
