Abstract: Major focus of English classes in primary school-level is to develop children’s interest in English through reading and exercises they like. Fun is what the children like the most. Games are fun; so are poems for children. The English course for grade V used in the schools in Itahari, Nepal is designed keeping the same idea at heart. But the real practice in classroom was not found so. Thus, this research was conducted to explore the existing relation between the principles of teaching poems and the real situation in the classrooms; and to suggest how this situation can be improved. Based on the data collected through questionnaire, class observation, distribution of poems in different textbooks of that class and international practices of using poem in this level, this article concludes that teaching poems in primary schools in Itahari needs improvements in a large scale.
