This is the second poem that I taught my form 1 students last year when I did Latihan Ikhtisas. I taught this after the mid term examination. It was included in the final year examination. I have a quiz on Quizziz on this poem too as an activity that I did using the computer room as formative assessment.
I sent the results to their parents. One parent replied my email telling me that she is thankful with what I do in class. She knows her son performance. But for the son, when he knew that his mom got an email from me, he was “grounded” and he has to read book instead of browsing the internet or watching the TV. He later said “Teacher, jangan la hantar email pada mak saya. Saya tak boleh tengok TV lama-lama atau tengok Youtube bila balik wajib. Kena baca buku sebab mak kata teacher beritahu dia saya kurang membaca“. [Translated: Teacher, please don’t send email to my mother. I was grounded and cannot watch the TV or Youtube for long. I have to read book because my mom said you told her that I don’t read a lot]. 😀
