Florida girl hopes to extend Indian-American win streak at spelling bee
MELBOURNE, Fla. — Most evenings, when her homework is done, Stuti Mishra turns to her Merriam-Webster Third New International Dictionary. Many of the words in the 12-pound tome are highlighted. Often, she will play with an online dictionary on her laptop to quickly find a word origin.

A Trip To Taiwan
By Vijeth Mudalegundi
From the moment I got off the plane, I knew that the months of preparation paid off. For months, I had undergone a rigorous selection process involving interviews, essays, and applications. After being selected into the program even more stress was added by the packing and preparation, but all of that stress washed away after stepping on land in Taiwan. Most people would say it was because I was so tired and just wanted to be on land again, however this felt a little more exciting than just that. Taiwan, from the beginning, offered much to explore and visit. It offered all landscapes one could think of, including: mountains, beaches, hills, valleys, plains, and cities. Everything one could think of in an island that is the size of New Jersey.

India’s Independence Day
By: Aarthi N. Grade 5, Birmingham, AL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Republished from August 2009
The Independence Day for any country is one of the most important holidays for that country, and India’s is no exception.
India’s Independence Day is on August 15, 1947. India gained its independence from the British. The British had ruled over India for over 200 years. Mahatma Gandhi is one of India’s most famous freedom fighters, if not the most important one.
On August 15, in schools and colleges all over India, no academic work is done. People only go to offices to hoist the Indian Flag. All government offices are closed. Shops are strictly told to pull down their shutters.
