Beatlemania

 Who was for the tour

All young Teenagers & Youth people to be at the concert.

Why-All the young people that went to the concert was because their so interested and obsessed with the Beatles and their interests with the topics they decide to sing and the lyrics. But also woman didn't really have a sense of love and affection back in those days because they were seen as housewives and nothing else but that, but as soon as the Beatles were introduced everything just switched.

who didn't want the tour to happen

the older gen wanted to presume with all the music that they grew up with as they thought that it went over board with the lyrics and that they would rather prefer the old version of genres.

  

Poem Wananga 2021

 What the poem your reading?

The city in the sea

Lo! Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West,
Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
Have gone to their eternal rest.
There shrines and palaces and towers
(Time-eaten towers that tremble not!)
Resemble nothing that is ours.
Around, by lifting winds forgot,
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters he.

No rays from the holy heaven come down
On the long night-time of that town;
But light from out the lurid sea
Streams up the turrets silently-
Gleams up the pinnacles far and free-
Up domes- up spires- up kingly halls-
Up fanes- up Babylon-like walls-
Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers
Of sculptured ivy and stone flowers-
Up many and many a marvellous shrine
Whose wreathed friezes intertwine
The viol, the violet, and the vine.
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie.
So blend the turrets and shadows there
That all seem pendulous in air,
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down.

There open fanes and gaping graves
Yawn level with the luminous waves;
But not the riches there that lie
In each idol's diamond eye-
Not the gaily-jewelled dead
Tempt the waters from their bed;
For no ripples curl, alas!
Along that wilderness of glass-
No swellings tell that winds may be
Upon some far-off happier sea-
No heavings hint that winds have been
On seas less hideously serene.

But lo, a stir is in the air!
The wave- there is a movement there!
As if the towers had thrust aside,
In slightly sinking, the dull tide-
As if their tops had feebly given
A void within the filmy Heaven.
The waves have now a redder glow-
The hours are breathing faint and low-
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle hence,
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence.

Science Base and Acid

Aim: To test the Ph of a range of household chemicals

Method

Step 1: Add a few drops of each chemical to a spot on your spotting tile. If a substance is solid or powdered you will need to mix it with a few drops of water before testing it.

Step 2: test the chemicals with the litmus paper

Step 3: test each chemical with a few drops of universal indicator.

Results

Vinegar	Red	Red	Red
Fabric softener	red	red	orange
Floor cleaner	Violet	Violet	green
baking soda	blue	blue	Blue
Chemicals	Color in blue litmus	Color in red litmus	Color in universal indicator

Discussion

Vinegar is a weak acid due to it turning red in each experiment. 

Fabric softener is also a weak acid because it was red for the first two experiments but changing orange at the last one.

Floor cleaner is a base, turning purple means that its a base because base turns dark, like tukotahi

Baking soda is a base because it turns dark, again like tukotahi.

Conclusion

Yes It did work, I could of put less base in so it was only one color

Beetles (SoSt yr10)

 Song: Hey Jude, Beetles

What's this song about?

The song's original title was hey Jules, and it was to comfort Julian from the stress of his parents splitting up. McCartney said, "I knew it was not going to be easy for him", and that he changed the name to Jude because he thought that sounded better. 

How is it different to 1940's music

Beetle sung about woman, sex, drugs all other artist at the time did, when the 2940's they talked about animals, no woman.

What is the song about?

lyrics to the song

Hey Jude, don't make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

Hey Jude, don't be afraid.
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

Hey Jude, don't let me down.
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with.
And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Hey Jude, don't make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her under your skin,
Then you'll begin to make it
Better better better better better better, oh.

Na na na nananana, nannana, hey Jude...
