Each child selected a plant to be placed in the terrarium. Then they had to draw their plant in their log book along with the name of their plant, which they looked up in various books provided by Ms Pat. The students took turns in groups placing the gravel, sand and soil in the terrarium, along with a water container.<br />

The result is a gorgeous terrarium that sits in the classroom's Rainforest Lab. The students are looking forward to adding animals over the coming weeks. Everyone is wondering if it will be tadpoles, a turtle or a type of lizard. </div>

The hands-on approach to learning is one of the ways Trilogy is different from traditional schools. The students often use games or other manipulatives to learn. In math, the "100 boards" are a fun way for the students to learn. During younger elementary thematics, the World rug helps the students locate the continents. Make sure to ask your child to sing the "Continents" song. </div>

So, when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When life gives you lots of rain from tropical storm Isaac and poor drainage, you make a science lesson! At least that's what Ms Pat did for this week's science class for the elementary students. Today's lesson was an introduction to different types of habitats, with an emphasis on wetlands. The students collected water and soil samples to see what, if anything, was living in the area affectionately called "Lake Trilogy" by some students!</div>

After collecting their samples, the students returned to the lab to examine them as well as a large tub of water, soil and plant life collected by Ms Pat. It seems we had mosquito larvae (surprise, surprise) as well as beetle larvae. Some tadpoles were spotted at the edges of the water, but the students weren't able to capture any.</div>

The second part of the day was again spent with Ms Pat, this time in Art class. The students will be creating a terrarium throughout the year as a way to study habitats. Ms Pat had some examples of the types of plants we will be using. The children made leaf rubbings as their art project for the day.</div>

To all Trilogy students and teachers, new and old, welcome, and welcome back! The first week of school has been a time of transition. The students have been getting to know one another as there are many new faces this year. With the loss of Lisa Rooney due to a move, we have also had some additions to the faculty as well. While Terry, Pam, Mimi (Linda) and Courtney are still working with the students, we have the additon of Tricia and Nina during the academic centers portion of the day. We are continuing the science and art enrichment classes on Fridays with Ms Pat.</div>

This should be an exciting year as the focus will be on biomes. This will include the plants, animals, and climate from various regions around the world. The children will learn about deserts, oceans, rain forests, the arctic, and more. <br />
<br />
There is one more change that should be mentioned. As Lisa is no longer maintaining the Trilogy Blog, I, Rychane Marsac, have volunteered to take on the task. Lisa has set the bar high and I hope to be able to do the job half as well as she did. As I am a parent of two Trilogy students, and have been for over five years, I feel proud to be able to help in this way. I will do my best to post weekly reports to keep you updated on what goes on in the classroom.

year in <a href="http://trilogy-school.blogspot.com/2011/07/what-are-thematics.html">thematics</a>, we studied American History. Next year, the focus will be on biomes. This will include the plants, animals, and climate from various regions around the world. The children will learn about deserts, oceans, rain forests, the arctic, and more. Already, plans are being made for many exciting field trips.<br /><br />We have also been brainstorming classroom decorating ideas, since the class decor always reflects what we are studying. <br /><br />Here is a picture of the igloo in the younger elementary classroom, six years ago, to give you an idea of the types of transformations our classrooms undergo. <br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2004-22.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2004-22.jpg" border="0" alt="DSCF2004-22"></a>Crescent Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16021940730235818438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141596469708491274.post-23410745977762928342012-06-06T10:58:00.007-04:002012-06-06T13:25:15.060-04:00The Last Day of School and Celebration"Show everyone how happy you are that it's the last day of school!"<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2009-22.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2009-22.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Yesterday was the last day of school. It was only a half day, so that everyone could go home, eat, and change clothes before returning for the celebration in the evening. There was still time for everyone to practice their songs one last time and play with their friends one last time, though.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2002-17.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2002-17.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />For my son and I, it was a time for tearful good-byes and promises to keep in touch.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2029-8.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2029-8.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br />Then it was time for the day's big event, Celebration. Parents,siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends filled the high school, to tour the student art displays, look at academic displays, talk to teachers, listen to the children sing, and watch both eighth graders and younger elementary students graduate.<br /><br />Those Trilogy kids sure do clean up nice.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2001-28.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2001-28.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2004-21.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2004-21.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2005-24.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2005-24.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />I will be handing over this blog to Rychane Marsac for next year. Much of the filming of last night's festivities was done by her, since I was needed on stage.<br /><br /><iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/eh43G9_YYHw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe><br /><br />After graduation, ice cream was served and everyone was invited to look at the elementary academic and art boards. These boards, designed by the students, were a platform for each child to display the work they were most proud of. <br /><br /><iframe width="420" height="315"

friends could get pictures taken after the graduation.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2035-7.jpg" target="_blank"><img

understand and remember the concepts she discussed.<br />This activity demonstrated wave.<br /><br /><br /><embed width="600" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true"

the human eye and looked at their own eyes in a mirror. Then they were asked to draw an artistic interpretation of what an eye looks like.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2056-2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2056-2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2060-4.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2060-4.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2062-4.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2062-4.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2063-3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2063-3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />They also wrote the dialog for a comic page and colored it.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2065-3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2065-3.jpg" border="0" alt="DSCF2065-3" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#cc0000;">Please remember, next Tuesday is a half day in the morning. The children will be released at noon, but we'd like them back by 6 p.m. to rehearse their songs before the celebration begins at 6:30 p.m.<br /><br />The elementary students have been working very hard to prepare for the end of the year celebration. They have made displays of the work they are most proud of and will be preforming three songs. We also have two students who will be graduating from younger elementary to older elementary.<br /><br />Eighth grade graduation is also part of the program.<br /><br />You will be able to take home all of your child's/children's work right after the celebration, with the exception of the math books, which you are welcome to look through, but we will need for next year.<br /></span>Crescent Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16021940730235818438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141596469708491274.post-63517371605812528732012-06-01T15:46:00.003-04:002012-06-01T16:02:03.006-04:00Middle and High School Water DayIt rained off and on today, but that didn't stop the middle and high school students from having a really fun water day, it just meant that nature contributed to how wet they got. <br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2009-20.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2009-20.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2011-21.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2011-21.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><embed width="600" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullscreen="true" allowNetworking="all" wmode="transparent" src="http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf" flashvars="file=http%3A%2F%2Fvid1086.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj442%2FTrilogyschool%2FDSCF2013-22.mp4"><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2043-3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2043-3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2020-17.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2020-17.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2024-14.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2024-14.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2035-6.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2035-6.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2036-11.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2036-11.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2052-4.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2052-4.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2049-3.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2049-3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><embed width="600" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullscreen="true" allowNetworking="all" wmode="transparent" src="http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf" flashvars="file=http%3A%2F%2Fvid1086.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fj442%2FTrilogyschool%2FDSCF2048-8.mp4"><br /><br /><br />The elementary school water day will be Monday.Crescent Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16021940730235818438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141596469708491274.post-42774742374468277202012-05-30T23:08:00.011-04:002012-05-31T21:37:12.097-04:00A Very Fond FarewellEight and a half years ago, my son and I moved to Gainesville, because my boyfriend wanted to work on his PHD at the University of Florida. I didn't know what to expect here and Florida took some getting used to. I really wasn't sure I wanted to stay. I'm a Midwestern girl and we didn't have fire ants, banana spiders, and giant flying cockroaches where I grew up. Having a good job can make all the difference when trying to fit into a new place and my first job in Gainesville was not a good fit for me. <br /><br /> Then I answered an ad for a teacher's aid position at Trilogy, a small private school in a little house with a white picket fence out front. I went for an interview with the younger elementary teacher, Kristin, and one of the principles,Terry, but I didn't have any childcare for my two year old son, so he had to come with me. The two women were completely unflustered, as we conducted our entire discussion while following my son from computer to computer all over the building. Afterwards, I was told that the flexibility I showed during that very active interview contributed greatly to me getting the job.<br /><br /> Starting work at Trilogy really changed my opinion of Gainesville. Once I was doing something I enjoyed, I was able to come to love this community. <br /><br /> During the eight years that I have worked at Trilogy, I have had many different jobs, teacher's aid for younger elementary, older elementary, and middle school, tutor, substitute, language arts teacher, history teacher, and keeper of the elementary blog. The consistent thing throughout all those positions, was that I enjoyed working with the Trilogy staff and children. It's a small school, even though it has grown out of that little house with the white picket fence. We really are all family.<br /><br /> I just found out a few days ago, that my husband has been offered a job in Tallahassee. Although he's not quite done with his PHD dissertation, he's very close, and that is something he can do while working. His new job will begin July 23, so I will not be returning to Trilogy in the fall. <br /><br /> I went through my photographs and put together a little good-bye slide show. I'm sorry it's a little light on older pictures. I didn't have a digital camera back then.<br /><br /> Please enjoy this and thank you all for being part of our lives. <br /><br /><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_Ei0cUkSNfg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>Crescent Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16021940730235818438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141596469708491274.post-63521710273146771322012-05-26T22:03:00.000-04:002012-05-26T22:04:15.659-04:00Preparing for CelebrationThe children have been decorating the three-fold boards that will display the work they are most proud of and be a backdrop for all of the work they have done this school year. <br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2011-17.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2011-17.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2017-10.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2017-10.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2012-13.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2012-13.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2016-13.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2016-13.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2021-10.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2021-10.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2015-10.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2015-10.jpg" border="0" alt="DSCF2015-10"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2020-14.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2020-14.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2019-12.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2019-12.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />These boards, along with boards displaying the children's art work, will be set up for everyone to view on the night of the "Celebration", Tuesday, June 5th.<br /><br />Other activities that night will be younger elementary to older elementary graduation, eighth grade graduation, and songs sung by the elementary students. Refreshments will be served after the program and then parents may take home their child's/children's work (please leave the math books, so we know can continue using them next year). <br /><br />I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend! <br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2011-16.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2011-16.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2013-18.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2013-18.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCF2024-13.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCF2024-13.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Crescent Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16021940730235818438noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141596469708491274.post-54697507690280385962012-05-26T07:58:00.009-04:002012-05-26T08:31:57.536-04:00The Whole School to OurselvesThe middle school and high school students were gone yesterday, so the elementary students were able to take over the "centrium" in the high school building.

enough to arrive on a day when there was a quilting bee going on at the visitors center. Costumed ladies demonstrated quilting and how to a crochet rug out of an old T-shirt cut into strips.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/006.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=014.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/014.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=013.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/013.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />The children really enjoyed seeing all the livestock.<br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=021.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/021.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCN8326.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCN8326.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCN8348.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCN8348.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=081.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/081.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=DSCN8352.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/DSCN8352.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=102.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/102.jpg" border="0" alt="102" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/?action=view&current=092.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j442/Trilogyschool/092.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />It turns out that we brought with us the perfect resource people.

His 28 year old self not only receives the letters, but changes the way he is living his life, to try to live up to the expectations of the little boy he once was.<br /><br />After reading that, I realized what a great writing prompt that would be, so I had the children write letters to the adults they will be in 20 years. The first 5 of these letters that were turned it, I posted on my own blog and the author of the book read them and posted the link to them on his facebook and twitter feeds.<br /><br />"This is awesome. Lisa Rooney is an elementary school teacher, and she was inspired by the concept of the Chronofax from the song Letters Between a Little Boy and Himself as an Adult, and the novel The Wrath of Fate. She assigned her class to write letters to themselves as adults. Go see the (very funny) results!"<br /> <br /> - Robert Brown, author of <span style="font-weight:bold;">The Wrath of Fate</span><br /><br /><br />So, here are those original five letters, along with a couple more that have been handed in since then (I realize that there are still mistakes, but I wanted this to be a fun writing exercise).<br /><br /><a

Earth Day was actually Sunday, but since that wasn't a school day, we had our belated celebration today. The children were asked to bring their lunches in re-usable containers, so that we would have zero waste today. We then had a picnic lunch, followed by picnic type games, like hula hoops, Frisbees, badminton, croquet, and tug-of-war.

The younger elementary students aren't just learning about the Corps of Discovery, they ARE the Corp of Discovery.
President Thomas Jefferson asks his personal secretary, Meriwether Lewis, to lead an expedition to the West, to make maps, study plants and animal, make friends with the natives, and possibly find a water route to the Pacific ocean.

While the corps spent the winter at Fort Mandan, they were joined by a French trader,Toussaint Charbonneau,and his young Shoshone wife, Sacagawea. They would work as guides and interpreters for the explorers. Sacagawea's baby, Jean Baptiste Charbonneau, better known as "Pomp" was born while they were still at Fort Mandan.<br />

Sacagawea and baby Pomp played an important roll in the rest of the trip. The native people they met were less suspicious of a group traveling with a woman and child, because they knew that nobody would take a woman and child to war.

Sacagawea knew which plants were edible and was able to cook for the men.

Once they crossed the mountains, they made dug-out canoes and continued their journey westward.

The men became very fond of Pomp and Clark often referred to him a "my dancing boy".
