Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Essay
We've been working on an essay that asks you to describe how you can celebrate the principles and steps toward nonviolence that were practiced and taught by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Your homework this week is to reflect on the process of writing this essay. Your response should be in the form of at least one well-developed paragraph. You can choose to focus on the planning process, the actual drafting of the essay, or the thinking that you generated around the topic. This shouldn't be a copy of the essay, but rather your thoughts about how you approached the assignment and/or the topic.
