The group will paint the chariot, let it dry, and then apply any stickers you want. suggestions - "flames" on the side and the word, "CHIOS" letter stickers on the back. Brandon's parents will get all the paint. Everyone looks for appropriate stickers.

Assignment: '''create''' a T-shirt for your city-state.
 
  
[Brandon's mom:] The group will need to create a design for a t-shirt. I'm sure the teachers intend for this to be more than just all agreeing to wear a blue shirt. Check with Mrs. Burris. For design, you can use fabric paints to paint on t-shirts (shirts of any color), or you can create a design on the computer by grabbing images and adding text and then print it onto iron-on t-shirt transfers.  Please discuss with the group.

[edit] Chios Fast Facts

Chios page at Wikipedia The population of Chios is about 52,290 people (as of 2001) with 350 sq miles as an area. Its main agricultural products are mastic, olives, grapes, wine, olive oil, and figs. A mastic plant produces a hard resin-substance which is used for baking. It is also used in Turkish Delight.

[Mom] Here's a site I found by googling Chios images. It gives the history of ancient Chios and the Greek myth that tells how Chios got it's name.

[Brandon's Mom 4/2] The work on the chariot yesterday went very well. Thank you everyone! The next meeting will be on Monday April 9th at 1:30pm. Bring your swim suits for hot tub after. The group will paint the chariot, let it dry, and then apply any stickers you want. suggestions - "flames" on the side and the word, "CHIOS" letter stickers on the back. Brandon's parents will get all the paint. Everyone looks for appropriate stickers.

The word 'Chariot' comes from the Latin word 'Carrus'.

(Emily's Mom) see my comments above...Sorry we missed Sunday Emily had a horse show all day. You guys are doing such a great job!

BRANDON - enter results of chariot building. Post pictures.
