Post a discussion on the wiki called Stars - answer these questions -
What are stars and constellations? Which constellations did you see in the view of the night sky? Which constellation do you think sounds most interesting and why? If you could create a constellation what would you name it? Give a 1-2 sentence explination Explain what your constellation would look like - the shape, how many stars, where could we see it in the sky Example - If I could create a constellation I would call it Open Book because I believe books can take you anywhere when you open and read them. I also think everyone should try to open their mind and imagination with reading. My constellation would have 15 stars. It would be in the shape of an open book with stars across to show writing on the page.

It would be located near the North Star in the Big Dipper so everyone would be reminded reading guides you like the North
Star used to guide the sailors.
