   In Chapter 16, Megan looked at Big numbers made by adding lots of zeros to the end of a 1, like a million, billion, trillion, quadrillion,etc.  Then, she learned how to make any of these numbers bigger by changing the very last zero to a one.

Her questions were:
1.) 6 +3 =
2.) Name a number bigger than a quintillion
3.) 7+2 =
4.) How many ears are on these rabbits.

Chapter 17

This chapter was about ordinal numbers and cardinal numbers. Fred's doll kingie has brothers in other states. The dolls in a particular state all had names that start with that state's letter. 

1.) what is the cardinal number for the set of states starting with M, like how many members are in this set - 8

2) What other letter has the same about of states whose name starts with that letter? We went to the map and eventually Megan guessed N. I was impressed and so we started to count them. Eventually we had to write them down. 

3.) 5 +2 =

4.) 5+4 =

5.) Name the one state whose name starts with R.  I knew it but Megan had to go find it. It is Rhode Island she said.

6.) 9-6 = 3
