Today we will be celebrating the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King Junior. Dr. King was a man who spent his life trying to get everyone to get along. Dr. King knew that if we looked past fear, and prejudice, we could all become friends. In that spirit we will be reading The Sandwich Swap. In this story two friends who always eat different sandwiches get into an argument because they each think their sandwich is better. In the end they try each others sandwiches and discover that different can be just as good! For our craft we will be painting a picture of a hand, symbolizing the hand of friendship that Dr. King extended to everyone. We would like to invite everyone to bring a sandwich with them today. While our pictures are drying, let’s sit down together and eat a sandwich. Maybe we can make a new friend!
