This could actually be adapted for kindergarten and 2nd grades as well since each of those grades learn about him too (SOL K.1b, 2.11, 3.11b).  I gave the class a Comic Life template to use and a folder of pictures which you can download by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/29Jan2011\/MLKComic.zip\">here<\/a>.  The template has speech bubbles already partially completed so the students only have to enter the important words.  This is helpful for the students who have problems typing.  However, for your good typists, you could differentiate by letting them type what they want in each speech bubble.  The students add pictures of their choice to each block of the comic, complete the sentence, and then add special effects to it.  You can see a sample project by clicking on the picture to see it larger.
