My model

Hi everyone I am going to make a model of a Greek vase it will be 20cm tall and 10cm wide. It will turn out to look like a proper Greek vase. Some of the vase will be gold,brown and black and at the end of all this it will look amazing! to make it I will need:
1.paper (newsprint)
2.glue
3.paintbrush
4.plastic table covering
5.paints
6.patience!

Now I have the stuff to make my model I will tell you how I will make it.
1. Draw 2 vases 20cm tall and 10cm wide.
2.Draw around the peices of paper on to a peice of cardboard.
3. Cut them out and add deatail.
4. Stick a peice of cardboard to fill in the gap between the 2 peices of cardboard to get a 3d shaped vase.
5. Add two straws to the side to make some handles.
6. Print/draw a picture on to my vase.
7. And last but not least I will paint my vase in gold,brown and black.

My model has turned out very nice.

Greece project

festivals
Athens had festivals every year for athletics, drama occasions.
All the city paid for these using taxes, but the richest citizens of Athens
offered to give more help.

Slaves
Some slaves were owned by the state, and it is very likely that wealthy homes have lots of slaves! Many slaves had special skills. Between 1/4 and a 1/3 of Athens 300,000 population were slaves.

Other things
Wealthy men hide there richness to get out of there public duties.
wealthy citizens paid the performers fees.
Athens is very rich.
