Full Moon Names

Are you up for a little "lunar trivia?" Native American tribes took time to assign full Moon names to each month, and we still use most of these names today. Native Americans named the Moons to keep track of the seasons, i.e., before we had the convenience of the modern-day calendar. Now that you have a small amount of background data behind the naming convention (we don't want to give you too much information), match each month to its corresponding Moon name.
