Freedom Rap (Anti-slavery work)
Freedom by Los Murcielagos
Break the chains,
End the pain,
We won’t be enslaved again,
We want FREEDOM!
Hurgh!
Everybody needs FREEDOM!
Free like a chick breaking out of its shell,
Free like a prisoner leaving his cell,
Free like a dolphin jumping through waves,
Free like the courage of all the escaped slaves
As free as the sea that covers the globe,
As free as a ball rolling down a slope
Free like a mind that’s racing with thoughts
We will never be sold we will never be bought
We will never be sold we will never be bought
Break the chains,
End the pain,
We won’t be enslaved again,
We want FREEDOM!
Everybody needs FREEDOM!
Free like being on your own
With no …
Freedom for my life,
Freedom is my hope,
Freedom is my journey
And cleans like soap
Break the chains,
End the pain,
We won’t be enslaved again,
We want FREEDOM!
Hurgh!
Everybody needs FREEDOM!
Free like a chick breaking out of its shell,
Free like a prisoner leaving his cell,
Free like a dolphin jumping through waves,
Free like the courage of all the escaped slaves
As free as the sea that covers the globe,
As free as a ball rolling down a slope
Free like a mind that’s racing with thoughts
We will never be sold we will never be bought
We will never be sold we will never be bought
Break the chains,
End the pain,
We won’t be enslaved again,
We want FREEDOM!
Everybody needs FREEDOM!
Free like being on your own
With no …
Freedom for my life,
Freedom is my hope,
Freedom is my journey
And cleans like soap

Slave Music
As part of their topic on slavery in America, the children in year 5 are working on a number of pieces of music for a performance assembly. These pieces explore the differences between major and minor chords, and the different feelings they create. They were made using Garageband on the iPads, using piano arpeggios.
Glossary:
Chord – two or more notes played together at the same time
Major – a scale or chord that generally has a positive feeling
Minor – a scale or chord that generally has a negative feeling
Arpeggio – the notes of a chord played one after the other rather than all at the same time
