Students at Nichols-Lawson celebrating Black History Month
Students in Mrs. Farr’s advanced ELA class are doing a jigsaw Speech Analysis Activity. Students have been given different sections of MLK’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech and analyzing these sections for the many rhetorical elements that make it a very effective speech. Students will be sharing their findings with the class and putting all of the parts together.
