Call them bite-sized poems. Call it Internet poetry. I plan to post some mini-verses here. Feel free to post some of your own.

There is one rule here that does not apply anywhere else. Make it anything from a pithy commentary to a light-hearted rhyme, but it must be a couplet. 2 lines minimum, 4 lines maximum.

Feel free to post it in english or spanish.

Algunos los llaman "pequeños versos", otros "poesía de internet", planeo poner algunos mini-versos aca, animate a poner algunos de tu propia inspiración. 2 lineas como mínimo y 4 como máximo.

Siéntete libre de escribirla en inglés o español.

In my experience, high school texts are very sloppy when it comes to mathematical terminology. Perhaps that's why the slight distinction between "range" and "image" is important in my mind. In the high school where I taught, the geometry text said (well, implied) that a square is not a rectangle. (Actually, a square is always a rectangle [4-sided polygon with four right angles], but a rectangle may or may not be a square; I say this just in case the words don't translate directly to Spanish.) You should try to teach from a text like that, and instill any sense of reasoning in the students. To quote the professor in the Chronicles of Narnia: "Logic! Logic! What do they teach them in these schools'"

And speaking of dining,
I'll get a cup of coffee, the moon is arriving.

Dear lady, you were out dining,
while these verses, I was refining.

while I have been dining.

My lady is always saying "boy, you're cool",
behind my back, she takes me for a fool!

My rhyming is not so polished nor refined,
it's just like a flying saucer you can't identify.

I don't believe in deep love verses,
nor green forms from other universes.

The roses belong to the fields, the pigs belong to the sty,
the horses belong to the stable, the stars belong to the sky.

I was going to dare and swim,
a T-shirt is all I'm gonna win.
