Do they know it's Christmas? Lyrics

It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade

And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time

But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear

Where the only water flowing

Is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring
There are the clanging chimes of doom

Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life

Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow

Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Here's to you
Raise a glass for everyone

Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived
If the table was turned would you survive

Here's to them
Underneath that burning sun

You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless
Give a little help to the helpless

Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again

Feed the world

Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world

Feed the world
(Feed the world)
Feed the world
Feed the world

Acid Rain experiment

 Hello again my precious prends!!

So today my class is gonna experiment with something but I do not know yet, but I think we're experimenting with something about acids. So here we go guys, but i write about the acid rain first.

What is acid rain?

Acid rain, or acid deposition, is a broad term that includes any form of precipitation with acidic components, such as sulfuric or nitric acid that fall to the ground from the atmosphere in wet or dry forms. This can include rain, snow, fog, hail or even dust that is acidic.

What is our Aim????

Our aim is to observe the effects of acid.  "Aaah ok ok".

Hypothesis.

Petal, Calcium Carbonate, Apple, Universal indicator, Bromothymol Blue.

Method.

In a Petri dish place items around the edge. Wet dry ingredients with a drop of water. In the middle, put a weight bout.

Observation

The Universal indicator changed its color to red, Bromothymol blue to yellow, and Petal to lighter clour of its color. and the only color that didn't change were calcium carbonate and apple.

Gallipoli Campaign | The Last Post.

 Hello my prends!!!!! 

Welcome to another blog for today. 

So today my class were studying about the Gallipoli Campaign, a war between British New Zealand and Australia against Ottoman Empire. and we listened to the song called The Last Post. 

The Last Post

Every 25th of April you will hear this song which is ANZAC Day. This song is commemorated as the end of the day’s war (Peace), and a funeral to those who died in the war.

Gallipoli Campaign

The Russians who were fighting on Germany's eastern front wanted the British and French to tackle the Turks to reduce pressure on Russia. The Anzacs Joined the British and French in a dreadful baptism of fire at Gallipoli. The British commanders anticipated that the Gallipoli peninsula would be "open to landing on very easy terms" and Turkey would have a force of only 40,000 to meet them. On 25 April 1915, the Anzacs landed at a difficult and desolate spot on the Gallipoli peninsula and the Turks appeared to be ready for them.

Atomic Science: Periodic Table

 Hello guys, today I am writing something about the periodic table that i learned in science.  

What does the periodic table show us?

• Mass Number

• Element

• Atomic

• Different column

• Different rows

• Features of the elements.

Alkali metals

Transition metals

Gases

The Periodic Table shows us the mass numbers on each element / atomic. On the Periodic table, there are different columns and rows on each. On each row, there are different features of the elements (Alkali metals, Transition metals, and Gases)

Alkali metals: Alkali metals react with any other element on the periodic table. Alkali metals have an unstable outer shell, so… The Alkali metals consist to get rid of their electrons by sharing. And that is why they react and explode because they have reacted.

What are alkali metals 

• 1st column

• Electron in outer shells

• What does it mean?

Parihaka by Tim Finn   Original Soundtrack      

 

My friend, My friend, I hate to see you suffer,

Events conspire to bring us to our knees,

My friend, my friend, you've taken this the wrong way, 

Rise up, defend yourself, never give in,

Look to the sky, the spirit of Te Whiti,

The endless tide is murmuring his name. 

I know Te Whiti will never be defeated,

And even at the darkest hour,

His presence will remain.

I'll sing to you the song of Parihaka.

Te Whiti he used the language of the spirit,

Then stood accused, the madman and his dream,

He saw the train go roaring through the tunnel,

He heard the voice travel on the magic wire,

But he loved the silence of the river,

He watched the dog piss on the cannon's wheel.

I know Te Whiti will never be defeated,

And even at the darkest hour,

His presence will remain.

I'll sing to you the song of Parihaka.

One day you'll know the truth,

They can't pull out the roots,

Come and take me home,

To weep for my lost brother.

They gather still, the clouds of Taranaki,

His children's children wearing the white plume,

So take me for the sins of these sad islands,

The wave still breaks on the rock of Rouhotu.

And when you taste the salt that's on your pudding,

And when you taste the sugar in your soup,

Think of Te Whiti, he'll never be defeated,

Even at the darkest hour,

His presence will remain,

I'll sing for you the song of Parihaka,

Come to Parihaka,

Weep for my lost brother,

The spirit of nonviolence,

Has come to fill the silence, Come to Parihaka.

Underground Railroad, Music through time

The use of spiritual is a type of religious song. they were sang in informal gathering of slaves in outdoor meeting called "brush arbor meetings," or "camp meetings". At the meeting, the participants would sing, chant, dance, and sometimes enter ecstatic trances.

They would used to.

1. Uplift slaves 

2. Give them hope

3. Church, funerals, and if allowed weddings

4. And to relay secret messages to help them escape. Like Wade in the water

What if these were used to be massage, a way to escape the slave's states, and it was written by Harriet Tubman. The message she uses WADE IN THE WATER was very effective and helped other slaves to escape the Slave's state. This was a message to cross through the water, it loses the scent where dogs cant track off the escaped slaves. She was wanted, dead or alive in the Slaves state.
