Arlington Heights Landmark Project


As a part of our Arlington Heights unit, the children are each studying a particular landmark (past or present) of interest in our town. They will be recording a few notable facts to go along with a drawing they've created that corresponds with their landmark. An added challenge to the project was to take a present day photograph at the actual site of the landmark! Thank you to those of you who have emailed those photographs to me, they are amazing! Thank you for helping us bring our learning to life. If you aren't quite sure where your landmark might have been, check out this virtual map from the Arlington Heights Historical Museum!
Here are a few pictures we've received so far:

Ella is in front of the Allen home.

Anya is in front of Village Hall.

                                                         Joe is in front of James Dunton's Home.

                                           Shelby is in front of the First Presbyterian Church.

                                                       Cole is in front of Recreation Park.
