In order to teach future generations about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., St. John Vianney fifth graders produced and enacted a play recapping salient moments in his life for kindergarteners.
The play presented significant historical events including Rosa Park’s courageous actions, a peace march protesting segregation, and poignant quotes from Dr. King’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech. As part of the project, the students were challenged to develop ideas for creating a more peaceful world.
