Purvis Power Puzzle

It's the last Power Puzzle of the summer. But don't worry—I'll still be posting new challenges at www.scholastic.com/dynamath once you go back to school!

Name Game

My family and I are on vacation at Pig Paradise Island—the ultimate spot for mud baths, swimming pools, and ice cream!

Down at the pool one day, I met a pig around my age who's really into patterns. In fact, he told me his name was a pattern. Can you figure out his name using these clues that he gave me?

• The name has 5 letters.
• The pattern is several months in a row on the calendar.
• This month has something to do with the second letter of his name.
• The third letter is S.
