Hello guys, Welcome to another post on my blog, today I'm blogging about The Haka and explaining what does this used for and what is the Haka symbolic. Some of the words I research because hard to answer in my own words. I hope you will like my blog post thank you have a good day.
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!
Talking about his lives and what gonna happened in his life. In my own words, I think that lyrics mean is this death or he may die or he may live. Talking about he may die or he may live so that the 2 choices. Whoever sings that song is like a hairy man because he said in the lyrics.
2. Research how the Haka was used successfully by the Maori Battalion in World War One and how the Maori Battalion was viewed.
Research:
On its return from Europe in 1919, the Māori Pioneer Battalion was enthusiastically cheered at homecomings across New Zealand. Yet divisions remained in New Zealand society. Though equal war pensions were awarded to white and Māori soldiers, Māori was largely excluded from the ballot to allocate land and vocational training to returning soldiers under the Discharged Soldiers Settlement Act of 1915. Furthermore, returning Māori servicemen suffered disproportionally from the influenza epidemic brought back from Europe due to the limited health services provided to them.
3. How was the Ka Mate Haka first used in Aotearoa?
Ka Mate Haka was performed by the New Zealand native team on their long and arduous tour, All blacks 1905.
4. What is the Haka symbolic of now and where is it used today?

Hi JV, I really like your graphical post with an image and videos. It's nice that you've added information about the "Ka Mate" haka, but it looks like you have copied information from Google and pasted on your blog. Also, you need to improve your grammar by not using slang words like 'gonna'. Your research paragraph is used from a website and wasn't changed to your words and not referenced - which is called plagiarism. It's nice that you've added two videos of where the haka is used, which interacts the viewers and makes them view the videos to learn more.
