Hello, my name is Kristina Nomikoudis. I am a senior at Eastern, originally from Schaumburg, IL. I have had a pleasure working in the small groups at Carl Sandburg. I was very excited to learn all about Lewis and Clark and the Chinook/Clatsop tribe with the children and other teachers. Thank you for this experience!
Hi! My name is Ashley Pelichoff and I am senior Elementary  Education major at Eastern. I am originally from Taylorville Illinois. I have enjoyed working with the third graders at Carl Sandburg. We have learned a lot about the Pacific coast and  the Lewis & Clark Expedition. The children enjoyed the program and had a lot of fun working with us. I will truly miss them!
	Hi! My name is Brent Watson and I am a senior Education major at Eastern Illinois University. My hometown is Bridgeport, located in the Wabash Valley of South Eastern Illinois. What a wonderful time we have enjoyed with the students during the Wonders of the Wilderness program. I have truly enjoyed traveling along with the children on this wonderful adventure of discovery!
I learned about the canoes. I liked building the canoes.
	The village was fun with the little raccoon stealing the food. In the fort the men had to sleep together to stay warm during the winter.
I liked the raccoon at the fort.
	I enjoyed going on the field trip. It was an interesting experience. I took lots of eye-catching pictures with my camera!
I learned about the Clatsop. Also Building the canoes was a  lot of fun.
	I liked the steam house at Cahokia. In the fort they had gun holes to protect the fort.
