Anthology

These are some questions that your child should be able to answer from reading the story, Happy Birthday, Dr. King!  Their answers would reflect their comprehension of the story.
  • Why is Jamal's grandfather so unhappy that Jamal fought to sit at the back of the bus?
  • What does Jamal learn from talking with his grandfather?  How is he different after the talk?
  • How does Jamal use what he learns from his grandfather in his skit?
  • Jamal says that he did something "really stupid that turned out to be stupendous instead."  What do you think he means?
  • What would you like to do for a school celebration of Dr King's birthday?
