They were going to be the oldest kids in the school. They decided to make the year more fun by playing practical jokes on each other. One day, Mario came up with a great prank. He told his best friend David about his idea. They thought it sounded like great fun. The next morning, they got to school early and went down to the restrooms near the fifth grade classrooms. They used a small screwdriver to take off the signs on the doors and switch them. They were careful not to scratch the doors or the signs. They didn’t want to get in trouble for destroying school property! As soon as they had the signs switched, they waited to see how their friends would react. They didn’t have to wait very long. One of their best friends came down the hall in a hurry. Just before he rushed into the boys’ bathroom, he saw the sign. He stopped, looking really confused. He stepped back and peered down the hallway, and Mario and his friend David could see that he was trying to decide what to do. He started to walk into the girls’ restroom, but didn’t get very far. As soon as he walked a few steps inside the room, he bolted back out. He looked up and down the hallway to make sure that nobody had seen him in the girls’ restroom, then headed toward the school office. Mario and David quickly switched the signs back before anyone else saw what they had done.
