Star NameFor the past two weeks we have been having book characters as star names. We had the 'Queen' & 'Prince' from the story book 'Sleeping Beauty' as our Star Name characters, Queen & Prince answered our questions via google hangout in our Star Name interview! What an amazing surprise! Their names gave us an opportunity to look at three new alphabets 'P', 'Q', & 'U'. We discussed the form of the letters and sounds. It demonstrated our growing alphabet knowledge!

In 'Go Fish', we explored the combination of numbers to make 5 . We 'fished' for numbers which when combined in pairs added up to 5.
