===Overview: Students will read "I Have A Dream" by Martin Luther King Jr. We will discuss language (figurative and literal), tone, mood, style, theme, etc. We will also discuss prior knowledge of the time period and civil rights movement.===

Standards:
=== Essential Question: How can I visually represent the civil rights movement that MLK has influenced and empowered? How can I visually represent the figurative language and symbolism that MLK has used to make his point?===

===Learning Outcomes (What can they do?): By visually representing one of the facets of the speech, the students will have a better understanding of what MLK was trying to convey and/or what the people of that time period were trying to make happen. The students will create something because they have remembered the literary terms, understood how they are applied in the speech and the historical movement, analyzed the importance and significance, and evaluted the connections.===

Classroom Logistics:
===Day 1:We will breifly share prior knowledge of the Civil Rights Movement and Martin Luther King Jr (5-10 min). We will read "I Have A Dream" stopping intermittenly to discuss language, tone, mood, and symbolism (50-60 min). Introduce the creation we will do Day 2 (10-15 min). Introduction - Show / Model getting into Toondoos; Explain that each student will get a facet and a quote to build a Toondoo from; Provide expectations.=== ===Day 2: Students log in to laptops while getting literature books, and I will pass out a slip that has a quote / literary term (10 min). Students will be given the instructions again and explained the expectations (5 min). Students will create their Toondos within 60 mins. They will then save, shutdown, and put their materials away (5-10).===

===Tools + Rationale for each tool used: Toondoos - creating a visual the represents their understanding, analysis, and evaluation. Artistic ability will not be an issue since they do not have to physically draw anything. Creativity is available at their disposal.===
