Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. in Science!

Use element atomic numbers and symbols to decode words and phrases associated with MLK Day, such as nonviolence, demonstration, Nobel Peace Prize, etc. There’s a section for students to decode the most famous portion of MLK’s “I Have A Dream” speech, as well. This is a great way to honor Martin Luther King Jr. in science class!
