This should be done with a small group of students. There are five in this particular class…..perfecto!
Below is the modified skit I created using the vocabulary and expressions we are learning in class. The benefit of this skit is that if a student is absent, it won't complete disrupt the entire performance.
Doctor / Patient Skit
First patient comes in dragging his leg and asks to
see the doctor. The second patient comes in with a crazy moving mouth, with a
silly look on his face. The third person has uncontrollable hiccups. They are all asked to sit down. The first person is asked to
go in. There is a real commotion and the patient comes out fine. The same thing
happens to the second and third patients. The nurse tells the doctor it is time
to go home. The doctor emerges with the symptoms of all his patients and goes
offstage.
Doctor and Nurse are looking at a chart together (clipboard). Patient A
enters.
Patient A: (Walks in dragging a leg). Hola, Doctor. Tengo un problema. Me
duele la pierna y no puedo caminar.
