Change Sings by Amanda Gorman
Change Sings - Read Aloud
Topics to discuss from this beautiful poem
Do we need to fear change?
Who is Martin Luther King and what is his dream?
Why does change bring hope?
What are strengths and smarts to make a change?
How can love, tolerance and courage help?
Where can we build a bridge instead of a wall?
Are we more diverse or similar? How do you know?
What does it mean to be the change you want to see?
