Trainer Material 1: Script for Skit: Sammy and Samantha Plan


a Party


Sammy: Hey, Samantha, why are you wearing that weird hat?


Samantha: It’s a party hat. I’m getting in the mood for the class party we were going to plan for next week.


Sammy: Well, it makes you look like a little kid!


Samantha: Oh ... Well, anyway, I had a couple great ideas I wanted to tell you about.


Sammy: OK, what were you thinking?


Samantha: We could ask to have the party in the school garden. It would be beautiful this time of year.


Sammy: That’s stupid! We tried that last year and the principal said he was afraid we’d damage something.


Samantha: Oh? ... But maybe we could offer to paint the benches or something.


Sammy: Anyone with common sense knows that won’t work! We barely have money for cake and you want to buy
paint and brushes too?


Samantha: I thought it was a good idea ... What about having the party down by the river?


Sammy: Yes, I already heard that idea from Nona. Did you steal it from her?


Samantha: No, I just thought of it. ... The river is a beautiful place.


Sammy: Why do you want to have the party outside? What if it rains? You’re being so impractical. I don’t know why
I even listen to you!
