ANTICIPATED PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

The students may not be able to interpret some words that are new to their vocabulary. This can hinder
their learning process. In order to avoid this, pupil teacher will provide them with synonyms of difficult
words through simple sentences so that they can incorporate the meaning when used in poem. The
students may find difficulty in understanding the concept of the poem since it is based on an abstract
concept that is beauty and not a concrete concept. Therefore, pupil teacher will first make them
understand the meaning in simple words in pre-reading phase, so that they can relate it while
understanding the poem. The students may face problem in reciting the poem, so I will make sure to
recite the poem with rhythm in pre-reading phase to ensure proper recitation by students.

The Pupil Teacher will, then, ask the students, one by one, to individually read out the stanzas to the
class. After that, the Pupil Teacher will ask them about their understanding of each stanza. She/He will
then ask some comprehensive questions to check and assess the students’ understanding, such as,
1. Who is the speaker in the poem?
2. Where can beauty be found according to the poet?
3. How can beauty be heard?
4. Can we find beauty in ourselves? If yes, then how? Give examples.

and human beings?
