This is the first poem that I taught my form 1 students last year when I did Latihan Ikhtisas. I taught this before the mid term examination. I did not have the time to revise it before the mid term examination with the students. Some of them could not answer it well. So, I didn’t have a quiz on Quizziz on this poem. I only used a worksheet as an activity which contains the following questions.
