Literature Poem

Botanic Garden

Botanic Garden, what a wonderful place

Colors and shapes everywhere

Incredible plants

Black and red, weird animals

All over the place

If you watch carefully you will see new

Things that you thought

They didn’t exist.

So pay attention and to the place

Because the next time

It won’t be exactly the same.

Rabbits and Chimpmunks

Jump everywhere

Try to catch them

It is not easy at all

They run all over the place

Someday, I won’t see them around anymore.

The plants have secrets you don’t

Know about

You can only see their beauty out

Not what made them grow.

Animals and plants are

The important parts

So that is the thing that

Makes the Botanic Garden

A wonderful place

Literature Final Reflection

In literature we work in our interdisciplinary project. We work alot. First, we did a poem, it was very difficult but finaly we did it. The poems were about nature. Also, we analize some poems that the teacher gave us it was very interesting.

by ximena segura

In Literature class we worked in teams analyzing poems about nature. Then we wrote our own poems. My team worked with the poem Trees.The words that I didn´t understand were: shall –strong form modal verb, bosom. The part of a piece of clothing that covers a woman´s bosom. The poem tells us things about trees. The poem is short. It is interesting because you can learn some characteristics of trees. The poem made me feel happy because you can find a tip to take care of them. It is related to nature only seeing the title and if you read you´ll see more. The author´s poem is too short but is really nice.

By Alberto Simon

In literature class we worked in the PI project by writing poems. First of all the teacher gave us a poem and we analyzed it. Mine was about trees and how lovely they are it was a little difficult then the teacher told us that we had to write a poem in teams we did it about the Botanic Garden.

The poem I analyzed was about trees and I think that it tells you about how lovely and great they are. It is incredible how a poem can tell you a lot of things. I think that it´s a very beautiful poem that tells you how trees are so lovely and interesting and this poem makes me feel that we have to respect trees. And also feel very happy. This poem it´s related with nature because it talks about the beauty of trees and I think that the author´s style is simple and easy and tells what is nature and trees.

By Anahi Plascencia

In literature class we first worked reading poems about nature.Then i analysed one poem named TREES. This poem its beautiful because it tells you many things about trees. We also did analysis and refelections about the poems. We choose one of those poems and put it in the wiki. When i was doing the poem i was felling happy because i think we are so lucky to have this world but we have to care about it. And now i know the problems we can have if we cut trees and also i feel bad when they cut the trees. I liked the poem a lot because i love nature

By Ricardo Guaida

In literature we worked with some poems about nature. First we read some poems and then we did an analysis all of them. We also wrote our own poems. I did mine about the UNAM. There were two poems by each team. We chose one of them and we will put it in our wikis.

The poem that I analyzed was named Trees. It is about the description of the trees. It is very good because it rhymes and at the same time it tells you how is a tree. I felt happy when I read it. The poem is very related to nature because the tree are from nature. For me, the author´s style is very good and I liked it very much because I like nature.

By Alejandro Elizondo

In Literature for the IP Proyect we analyzed poems. After we analyzed them we started writing our own. Our poems were about nature and alsoabout thevisits we made. It was an interesting activity because we were creative and we also practiced our spelling.

The poem I analyzed told me that trees are the most wonderful things in the wolrd. I think the poem is beatiful because it is about nature, trees, and the bad things that happen when you cut and "hurt" the ecosystem. It made me feel great and also made me reflect about what happens when we cut some trees. It is related to nature because it talks about trees. I think that the author style is very creative and unique. The poem rhymes and it is short.

Why is important to use original flora from the Pedregal de San Angel on an ecological garden?

We think that is better to use the plants that we have because they don`t need so much care and if we bring from other places they need another treatment and more water. That´s why we need to use the ones from here. We also have to use the ones from here because they are beautiful and we can enjoy them as well as the others so that´s why we need to use the ones from here.
by Anahi Plascencia

It is important to use them because they use less water,less care than other plants.If you put other plants that are not original from the pedregal you destroy the history and it is more expensive,if you put original plants you conserve the history of the pedregal and also those plants are beautiful.

How we make our ecological garden

First we chose the plants that we were going to use in our ecological garden. We investigate about some plants that are native from the Pedregal de San Angel. Then we chose the site were we wanted to plant those plants. We made designs about how it could be, then we chose one per team and we made a 3D design. Finally we went to the site and plant the plants that we considered that were going to grow.

Haciendo Nuestro Jardín Ecológico



Nosotros hicimos nuestro jardín ecológico a un lado del edificio de Kinder. Para hacerlo primero elegimos el lugar donde lo queriamos hacer. Luego tuvimos que escoger las plantas que hibamos usar. Las plantas tenían que ser provenientes del Pedregal. Ya que escogimos las plantas, hicimos borradores para ver como iba a quedar nuestro jardín ecológaico. Después de eso, quedó el mejor borrador. Luego el profesor Rodrigo de ciencas fue por las plantas que elegimos que son: Oreja de burro, Agave, tronadora o tecoma y palo loco. Al final, nosotros plantamos todas las plantas en el jardín.
