I HAVE A DREAM August 28, 1963 **It’s been called the greatest speech in history – period. The words that Martin Luther King Jr. exclaimed in the nation’s capital in August of 1963 still ring in the ears of Americans. But what exactly did he actually say? What was his dream? Listen to the excerpts from Dr. King’s speech and summarize and illustrate each on the Power Point file. **

Click on the [|Dream template.pptx]. With your group, enter your first names, and be prepared to analyze the words of King. For each segment (8 total), you will be summarizing it in your own words and selecting images (clip art, not historic) to illustrated the main ideas of what King was conveying on that hot summer day.

Once you are done, you will be embedding your illustrated "Dream" speech into your online notebook on a new page. To do so, you have a few options ...
 * Upload the finished file to your Google docs account, save it, and then get the embed code using "Share" on the top right of the screen.
 * Upload the file to voicethread ([], and you will want to start an account), save it as a voicethread, make it "public" and embed it.
 * Use a PowerPoint to flash converter online, save the file as an .swf file, and upload it to your wiki.

 Once you have finished uploading it, copy and paste the following exercises onto your "Dream" page and complete them using the resources provided.
