text: what is rectitude? i have a project due, and i was wondering how i could put the word rectitude in a good sentence, then draw it!?  help me! the word has to do with being honorable and behaving in a moral way, and being concerned about justice and fairness in all one's decisions and actions.  think about examples from your own life where people have shown rectitude - done the right thing, even though it was tempting to do something else, and write about that and draw a picture about it.  good luck with it.
