Martin Luther King Day Word Search
This Martin Luther King Day word search has forty words from Dr. King's life and the holiday: Atlanta, Ebenezer, Morehouse, the Lincoln Memorial, Birmingham, Memphis, nonviolence and the Nobel Prize, with the dream he described and the day of service.
King was born in Atlanta on January 15, 1929, entered Morehouse College at 15 and later preached beside his father at Ebenezer Baptist Church. He was 26 when he was chosen to lead the Montgomery bus boycott in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he gave the I Have a Dream speech to about 250,000 people at the Lincoln Memorial, and the next year, at 35, he became the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize up to that time.
He was killed in Memphis on April 4, 1968, the day after his Mountaintop speech. President Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law in 1983, and it was first observed in 1986 on the third Monday of January. Every state marked it by 2000, and since 1994 Congress has asked Americans to treat it as a day of volunteer service.
