Drama and Acting

My social studies teacher used to teach drama, until they got rid of that. He’s explained that mostly this year, we will be doing a lot of things we did in that class, like performing skits and doing big projects. Artistic things. Well, he assigned our table groups. I’m friends with one girl in my group, and the three others I’m not too friendly with on a daily basis. We have to do a skit about why history is important, and our theme is the military. Me and one boy in our group were the only ones talking. I tried so hard to get them interested, but they did nothing and looked at me the whole time. I don’t mind taking charge on these things, I love being creative and writing, but even when I went around and asked them to each say why history is important, they gave me pretty much nothing. I want so badly to get a good grade on this project. I’m not going to let myself fail because of them, but I need their help. How the hell do I get these kids to just do their part?
