The nation is preparing to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the Day of Service in his honor.
During Library, Kindergarten classes read Because Amelia Smiled by David Ezra Stein.
This book is a perfect example of how people of all ages can make the world a brighter place just by being kind. We then talked about how Dr. King taught us all to care for others, and why it is so fitting that his holiday was declared a Day of Service across the country. We agreed that even if we can’t go out and do an official service project, we can try our best to be kind to everyone we meet that day and spread joy in honor of Dr. King’s legacy.
