Pretending that you were a child in either Jericho or Israel (specify which), write a paragraph of a few sentences describing the conquest of Jericho from your point of view.

Answer :

Isreal 

I went out into the market place today to buy a loaf of bread for my family. As I entered the market place everyone seemed to be acting very strange, but excited and I couldn't tell why. It felt as though they were hiding something from me. Then I head someone say it but I could not believe it was true. "The walls of Jericho have fallen." To see such strong city fall means that there is no guarantee that any of us are safe. I do not see why people are so excited about the conquest. They should be terrified.

Apparently the rhythm of the Israelites marching around and around sent vibration through the walls and weakened them, and the trumpet blowing was enough to make them collapse. The Israelites stormed the city and sacked it.  

These would have been mud brick walls, which are heavy, and need to be on a very solid base and very well constructed to rise to a great height. Jericho was apparently not built strongly enough.
