Rants
Rants are going to be a consistent theme across the middle school classes this term.
here are some definitions
Rant:
A loud bombastic declamation expressed with strong emotion
Talk in a noisy, excited or declamatory manner
pompous or pretentious talk or writing
in a gist rants are talking with passion about something we believe in strongly...so lets start a "rant"
post about something that gets you passionate and motivated
example
I love school uniforms they are essential to high level learning. All school should have a mandatory dress code. This would create a better learning environment for our schools and produce more respectful young adults. ( you can rant in response to this or begin your own rant. be aware that being passionate and motivated does not mean or justify being rude or disrespectful, you still want to demonstrate positive listening skills and dignified responses)
