+First we're going to define some GraphQL ObjectTypes for our `Schema`:
 
-```

+```python
 import graphene

\ No newline at end of file
+schema = graphene.Schema()
+
+# This will be our root query
+class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
+    username = graphene.StringField(description='The username')

+   	def resolve_username(self, *args):
+   		return 'Hello World'
+
+# Here we set the root query for our schema
+schema.query = Query
+```
+
+Then, we can start querying our schema:
+
+```python
+result = schema.execute('{ username }')
+
+# result.data should be {'username': 'Hello World'}
+username = result.data['username']
+
+print(username)
+```
+
+Congrats! You got your first version of graphene working!
