Civil Rights Movement
In Social Studies, we will be learning about the Civil Rights movement. Click on the video to learn a little about the Civil Rights movement. You'll see many great people like Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, President John F. Kennedy, who helped to bring about equality for ALL people. After viewing the video, go to the discussion tab and share your reflections. media type="custom" key="3732835"

1. When posting messages on our WIKI, please sign your post by using your first name only. Never use your last name. 2. Always respond using respectful and appropriate language. Remember, if you wouldn't want your teacher, parents or principal to read your posting, then you shouldn't post it in the first place! 3. Please use complete sentences with capitals at the beginning of a sentence and correct punctuation. Check your spelling because there is no spell check in WIKI land! 4. Don't use all capital letters within your text. Remember, when writing an electronic message, that's just like YELLING at those that are reading your message! 5. Keep an open mind and respectfully listen to others' opinions. If you choose to respond to a classmate's posting, and if you disagree, please do so with kindness and give support for your opinions. 6. This WIKI page is a reflection of our thinking.
