Pebbles

For this skit you need: 1 teacher and at least 4 pupils (preferably 6), enough chairs for each pupil, and a teacherÕs desk.

Teacher is waiting for class to arrive.

Pupil 1 runs in.

Teacher: What is your name and why are you late?
Pupil 1: Sorry MaÕam/Sir. My name is Michael and I was throwing pebbles in the lake. (Pupil sits down.)

Pupil 2 runs in.

Teacher: What is your name and why are you late?
Pupil 2: My name is Carrie MaÕam/Sir. Sorry I am late, but I was throwing pebbles in the lake. (Pupil sits down.)

Three more pupils run in, one at a time and are asked the same questions. They reply with their name and 'I was throwing pebbles in the lake.

Finally…Pupil 6 walks in wet. (For this effect, they can have a spray bottle w/H2O backstage or splash water from a sink on their head.)

Teacher: What is your name and why are you late?
Pupil 6: Sorry MaÕam/Sir. My name is Pebbles!
