When I did my Latihan Ikhtisas, I have to teach form 1 and form 4 poems. Yup. Poems that I never learned, taught or studied. I struggled. Indeed. But, I learn certain technique how to teach poem. So, when I asked Ita last Tuesday 18 June 2019 what she wanted to do over the weekend, she told me that she and Aalia planned to do a tuition class for the form 5 students. I offered myself to teach the “exceptional” students. So, there are 6 of them but Rahim was absent (he went back because his father was hospitalised).
Ita and Aalia planned to cover a poem and the themes part for the Captain Nobody novel. I never taught form 5 last year so, I challenge myself to learn about the poem. I have a quick crash course with Ita on Thursday afternoon (20 June 2019) to learn about the poem. With a bit of confident, I started to construct a handout. I looked at various questions that I could find from the reference book and whatsnot and I collected them all and made it into an activity worksheet that I later shared with Ita and Aalia.
So, here is the poem that I have to teach the “exceptional” ones last Friday (21 June 2019). I haven’t thinking about what I would do on the second class.
