India just won this trophy in Cricket- my Dad and Mom are going crazy and I'm clueless.... I'm trying to figure out what cricket is! I tried asking my friends but they were also clueless. First I thought that they were thinking about the bug, cricket but then I thought about it and reminded myself that Cricket won. How could a bug win? Then I thought it was a type of plant but I had the same problem. A plant can't win! What could win? I think I got it. It could be a guy who won fighting, it could be a wrestling match's special name or it could be a special name for a tornado, tsunami, hurricane or any natural disaster. I think it's a guy who won fighting. But I'm not sure. My teacher knows exactly what cricket is,but she wouldn't tell us. Everybody in my class is now trying to figure out what it is! We begged my teacher but she wouldn't budge. My teacher gave us an idea. Every Friday we have a secret meeting in the town park in the top secret tree trunk. Our teacher gives us jobs. She hides clues in the world and in the internet but out teacher made our parents lock all sport websites. We have four or two people in one group if it is a four people group we guessed we have to split up. She gives a job and in that job we get a clue. The jobs helps our teacher and other members of the school get work done and it also helps us figure out what Cricket is. We haven't started yet but this is how it's like. My friend and I got the job to mop closets. We bumped into a medal pole. In sharpie a note written. It will give a clue and if it is a piece of paper or something we can pick up and transport, it will have a part of a small paragraph. In the meetings we discuss and put together the clues. We have a group e-mail that everyone can log into if they know the password and is in the group. Our password is cricket. If we find an online clue we send it to the group e-mail. I bring a laptop to the meetings so we can check the clues.
We are half way done. Our paragraph says : Cricket is a game that is from India. It uses a bat and ball. India won the World Cup in Cricket. That's all we got. ...
We finally finished! We figured out that Cricket was a sport related to baseball ( Or that what we thought) We figured out the rules of the game in the paragraph. We told our teacher the information. We were correct. That was the most fun way to figure out something! It took us about a month but now I can cheer with my parents when they mention about Cricket!
Few weeks later
