What is a YYC landmark?
We have been learning about YYC landmarks, logos, symbols and fun facts about our local landmarks that define our community. Your child has selected one of Calgary's defining, unique landmarks.
Today, they have brought home a fun home challenge:
Students are to look up, read and jot-note two fun facts about their YYC landmark. Kindy help them safely google two fun facts.
Please record on the sheet provided
Sketch the landmark in the box. (Photo of landmark on the backside of the page).
Return the landmark research tomorrow for sharing and for our next steps...
Psssst... Fun Fact:
Did you know that we will be drawing up a blue-print plan, then building and designing our landmark with all the awesome and amazing recyclable materials that you have all so kindly donated? Thank you for the incredible donations! They will be so appreciated when we build!
Did you know...
1. That the new YYC Central Library is located directly EAST of the City Hall and has bike racks on all sides of the library?
2. In the first 7 months that it opened in the East Village that over 1 million visitors went through to tour the amazing facility?
3. Construction started in 2014 by Snohetta architects and was a fully funded $245 million dollar project?
