Work in small groups to brainstorm ideas for your skit, using the following questions as a guide.

Characters: Which figures in the drawing will have roles in your skit? Based on their gestures and clothing as well as your imagination, describe the personalities and unique characteristics of these characters.

Exposition: Which characters will appear in the beginning of the skit? What is the location and time of your scene, and how will you communicate this to the audience?

Rising Action: How will conflict be introduced? Will a character or an external event be the source of the conflict?

Conflict: What is the conflict and why does the conflict occur?

Climax: What is the most exciting part of the story? As the conflict unfolds, what is the most dramatic part? How does the conflict get resolved?
