Beatles (Social studies) Here comes the sun

Yesterday in Social studies we have started learning about the Beatles and what they did to change music, we have listened to some of there songs.

In this blog ill be explaining what a song that I listened to is about.

The song that I have chosen to talk about is ¨here comes the sun¨, I chose this song because I have heard this song before.

This song basically telling others that everything will be alright as it says ¨Its alright ¨ And is just telling everyone that if somethings going wrong it will get better. And don´t focus on the past look forward to the future.

This song is different to songs that were made before cause most song before this songs mostly never talked about feeling and emotions but in these songs emotions and feeling are sung in almost every song that they wrote.

Here comes the sun do, do, do
Here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun do, do, do
Here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun do, do, do
Here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly…

Here comes the sun¨

THUMP THUMP THUMP

My heart pounded through my chest,Fear as I strolled through the shops doors, Adrenaline as I Slipped the items into my bag, Embarrassment as customers watched me, Fear as I walked past employees.

Yelling, Beeping, sirens screamed as I ran away.

The Haka

Hello welcome to my blog this blog is about the Haka that the Maori battalion did.

1 What is this line referring to?
'Tis death! 'tis death! (or: I may die) 'Tis life! 'tis life! (or: I may live)
'Tis death! 'tis death! 'Tis life! 'tis life!
Its them basically saying there going to war, they may die or they might live.

2 Research how the Haka was used successfully by the Maori Battalion in World War One and how the Maori Battalion was viewed. 
It was used to scare the enemy's and it worked.

3 How was the Ka Mate Haka first used in Aotearoa?

It was a war dance to intimidate the other tribes if they upset them.

4 What is the Haka symbolic of now and where is it used today?

We see the Haka being performed in many other sports.
