On February 25, an educational excursion Outstanding People of the Motherland took place as part of the International network event #ДниЯрославаМудрого (Days of Yaroslav the Wise). The main purpose of the event is to promote reading among children and youth and introduce to them the history and culture of Kievan Rus'.
Students of Minsk Construction College No. 7 not only saw the resources and services of the National Library of Belarus, but also learned about the cultural and historical heritage of our country, which finds its way in the modern works of literature, music and fine art. In the course of the excursion, special emphasis was placed on the artworks Rogneda by Ms N. Sukhoverkova, The Tale of Igor's Campaign by Mr G. Poplavsky, On the Land of the Fathers by Mr V. Sumarev.
During the interactive segment, the students watched the animated film Rogneda, which tells about the life of the Grand Duchess and her extraordinary fate. At the end of the segment, they took a quiz and put together puzzles. Besides, the teenagers learned about a thematic book exhibition dedicated to historical figures (Vladimir, Rogneda, Izyaslav, Yaroslav), Belarusian cities (Polotsk, Zaslavl, Novogrudok) and literary monuments (Rus' Primary Chronicle, The Tale of Igor's Campaign).
Come and enjoy excursions from the cycle Outstanding People of the Motherland and learn more about famous fellow citizens.
