City-State Time by-mariam

== Group ==

I don't think that we should be talking about dates for meetings so much anymore. since we always have to consult with our parents all the time... we'll just write on the wiki when we're free instead of talking about it during city-state time. we should be studying for every test too. we might get an award on our poster for greatest average. so let's quiz each other not just on our mid-greece quiz but also for our wordly wise! maybe that's included in our city-state avrege. u never know... she took the averege for Star Fisher!

GRANT-I AM NOT FREE!
 
 
[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.

[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.

I bought royal blue t-shirts for everyone. What color letters do you all want for "CHIOS"?  What color for your nicknames?  What color paint do you want for the handprint?
  
 +
Gold letters will be very hard to find and won't show up very well against the royal blue. I would recommend WHITE.

Mariam:that's great! what time and date r we talking. and guys i think grant's right. we've succeeded getting emily over 2 brandon's house but we need to be more open-minded and flexible so we can allow grant's tight scheduel into ours. grant... list all the dates u r free for anything. we'll take those dates and use them for our meetings. everyone chip in and tell each other what days we can come. we'll do the best we can on catching everyone up on everything if they missed a group meeting out of school. Since we all agreed on going to brandon's house on the sun. after easter from 12:00-3:00, i think we should make the flag at school since grant hasn't had a chance to make it to any of our meetings. Of course... we'll consult with mrs. burris before we do anything.

[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.

[edit] Chariot Design

[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!

[edit] T-Shirt Design

Assignment: create a T-shirt for your city-state

//Mariam: We'll have starfit blue t-shirts from walmart or target. then, on the front, we'll add iron on letters that spell out chios (obviously) and we'll put our own handprints on it. on the back, we'll have a special number that we chose ourselves, and our greek nick name (for example my nick name is Athena!)

[Brandon's mom 4/12] I bought royal blue t-shirts for everyone. What color letters do you all want for "CHIOS"? What color for your nicknames? What color paint do you want for the handprint?

Gold letters will be very hard to find and won't show up very well against the royal blue. I would recommend WHITE. Emily:We are bringing some iron on tranfers paper that we can print from the computor if we want to use these.....

[Brandon] I think I have found the writers of the medea, oedipus rex, and agamemnon, but these days with the internet, you just can trust anybody you don't know.

Agamemnon: Aeschylus

Oedipus Rex: Sophocles
