Multiculturalism and Diversity - 5th Grade


Math and Martin Luther King, Jr! Fifth grade artists were asked to take an 8 x 10 image of Martin Luther King, Jr. and recreate it 10 times bigger. That would normally be a piece of cake for our students, but there was a twist...the picture was cut into pieces, and the artists had to work together to make sure their work would turn out well. Using rulers, calculators, and teamwork, the kids created a VERY colorful portrait of Martin Luther King, Jr. that is almost 5 feet tall!
