Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. First of all we HELP, but we do not DO the work for you. Besides we do not have access to the reading you mention. Read that first, write your skit next, post it here and someone will be glad to proofread it for you.

Ms. Delia, when you type in all-caps, two things happen:

**it's harder to read, and

**it's the online equivalent to SHOUTING.

Please type in regular mode, with the Caps Lock feature turned off. Thanks.

Certainly! To write a 2 to 3 page skit based on "The Watsons Go to Birmingham," you will need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Familiarize yourself with the story.
Read or review "The Watsons Go to Birmingham" by Christopher Paul Curtis. This will give you a good understanding of the plot, characters, and the general tone of the story.

Step 2: Determine the focus of your skit.
Decide which specific part or event from the book you would like to showcase in your skit. It could be a funny or dramatic scene that captures the essence of the story.

Step 3: Identify the characters.
Choose three characters from the book that are integral to the scene you have selected. Make sure these characters have distinct personalities and roles in the skit.

Step 4: Develop the dialogue and plot.
Create a script that includes the dialogue and action for each character. Think about how these characters would interact and what conflicts or resolutions might arise in the scene.

Step 5: Outline the skit.
Divide your skit into sections, including an introduction, rising action, climax, and conclusion. This will help you ensure that your skit has a coherent structure.

Step 6: Write the skit.
Begin writing your skit, following the outline and incorporating the dialogue and actions for each character. Aim for a length of 2 to 3 pages, keeping in mind that each page equates to approximately one minute of performance time.

Step 7: Edit and revise.
Review your skit for clarity, coherence, and accuracy to the story. Make sure the dialogue is true to the characters and the overall tone of the book. Edit any grammatical errors or awkward phrasing.

Step 8: Review and finalize.
Read through your skit multiple times to ensure that it flows well and effectively conveys the desired message. Make any necessary revisions until you are satisfied with the final version.

Remember, the skit should capture the essence and themes of "The Watsons Go to Birmingham." Feel free to add a touch of your own creativity while staying true to the original story.
