Our study of India will comprise the geological and physical sides of the Hindu-Muslim nation as well as its music, art and cusine.
Friday we began with our 1st sketch map and vocab:
* Namaste' is the Hindi greeting of India.
* Khaki, paisley and jodphurs connect with India.
* Monday we will use the taj mahal as a framework for our study.
Independent writing?
* Eat at India's Cuisine and write a descriptive essay. They're on Youree Dr, not far from CMHS. Google their web site for hours and menu.
* Or eat and write about Utsav, a fancier place for the cuisine of India at the corner of Bert Kouns and Fern. It is owned by CMHS student Shikha Saraswat's parents.
