Trip to the local Sikh temple.

Here are a few photos from our wonderful trip to the Sikh temple up the road for a talk about the Sikh culture and a delicious lunch.





Yesterday we walked to the temple. First we took off our shoes. Next we lined up and we put on an orange scarf to show respect. Raj talked to us for 1 hour. 

After that we walked down stairs and sat down. We ate rice and curry. The rice smelled like our normal rice. When we finished our food we said a big thank you for giving us food. We went to put on our shoes and got ready to walk back to school.

In the temple we had to wear a scarf on our head. When we cover our head it is a sign of respect. I wore a sari. It is a sort of dress. 

The temple was as gold as coin. They told us all about their culture. I learned they can't cut their hair. On their right hand they can't steal because they have a bracelet that's sort of their god. It was made out of steel. 


They had the yummiest food ever. They had rice, dhal and best off all roti.

George Washington and the Ring of Fire

George Washington and the Ring of Fire


One sunny warm day a man named George Washington, was in the forest at a food truck eating a burrito, and drinking a strawberry milkshake, and also a hamburger. Once he finished his meal he looked outside and thought there was a path. But there wasn't. Immediately George Washington was lost. He had to stay in the forest. George Washington had an idea in his brain. He started walking forwards. All of a sudden he got to a place where he had to go left or right.

He picked left. Soon he started seeing some light. Immediately he looked up and saw a ring and it was on fire. He looked in the middle of the ring and saw the beach and said, “That's where I want to be." He climbed up onto the ring of fire and jumped through it. After that he climbed back down the other side and had an awesome time at the beach eating yummy food like hotdogs, burgers, burritos, chips, coconuts, strawberry, lemonade, banana and mangoes!

George Washington had the best trip to Hamilton after the party at the beach. But all of a sudden, “Roar!!" He looked outside a piece of pizza and more pieces the pizzas took him to an enormous giant. That giant was blocking the path. The scary giant was asleep and didn't wake up but George Washington wasn't able to get to the airport because the giant was blocking the airport. Immediately George Washington was freaking out. He had nothing to do.


After a while he thought he should wake up the giant. As soon as George Washington woke up the giant he said, “Please let me through. I need to go back to America. Can you pretty please let me through?” After a while the giant said, “Yes of course.” And George Washington and the giant lived happily ever after.
