The Safety Cricket Trap

Today was the 17th of September.Ezrah, Alex (Alexander) and I made a cricket trap. We first designed our own trap. My one had a cage with cucumber because crickets love cucumber! On the cage had a door that could open shut. There was a rope on it. If you pulled it, the cage would open. So when the cricket sees the cucumber and goes in the cage,I'll let go of the rope and say "hooray!".

When we had finished we had combined our information. So we put it to the test. These were the things we needed: String, box, scissors, brown tape and some grass. We got the box and cut the top. We put tape on the top. On the middle of the top you will get stuck. But on the ends of the top you will not. We put the grass at the end of the top. The top got placed in the box. On the box we cut a hole on the side. We drew a monster with the hole. The hole was the mouth and we drew the face. I drew a pointing arrow saying" Come here little boy!". Okay so when the cricket sees the hole it will see a little a piece of grass. It will go inside it. It sees a huge bunch of grass. It goes to it. The cricket steps on the tape. It is not sticky yet. The cricket will carry on and walk. It reaches the middle. It gets stuck. We close the top and tape the top. We cover the hole with the extra card board. We finished!
