There
are all different kinds of social groups at school and another name for them
would be clics. If you have not seen any
clics at school then you must have a strange school or you just don’t pay
attention. There are the jocks, the
plastics (popular people), the nerds, the band geeks, the pot heads, the country folk and so
much more. I recommend that you watch this video because it talks all about social groups.
Depending
on which social group you are in, you view school as a social opportunity or
just as another way that the government is trying to control you. School isn’t just about learning, it is more
about preparing you for the real world.
The government wants people to succeed in life and school gives everyone
that opportunity in the United States.
If you
are sitting in a class that has free seating or choose where you sit, it is
easy to see the separation of social groups.
You can also tell who is in which social class by looking at the way
they dress and how often they participate in class or even interrupt in class. If you don’t have free seating and are stuck
next to a person of a different social group, don’t worry, most people don’t
bite. It may be awkward but they are
probably thinking the same thing as you.
Like, why do we have so much homework?
Will that kid over there just shut up?!
Many people have a lot of things in common and being in a different
social group shouldn’t stop you from communication with one another.
A
person can also be in many social groups and have a lot of different
friends. That can come in handy when you
are stuck on homework or need someone to sit with at lunch. I don’t think there could ever be no social
groups and have everyone be the same. It
would be like a utopia society and our World right now is the complete opposite
of that. But don’t forget, there are
still social groups at a work place, but it might be harder to pick up on
because of a dress code or people not having as much time to socialize.
