The exciting Soccer Session 1, 2 and 3.

WALT: write a recount using similes and direct speech.

Today we had soccer lesson with Ben the instructor from the Auckland Sports. First we started of with a game called octopus for our warm up. Then he showed us how to juggle with our legs. It was hard and fun at the same time.

Our soccer session 2 was equally fun and tiring.  We learnt to step with a soccer ball. We practised the scissors step which is really a skilful stepping move. We also learnt to dribble the soccer ball and stop it with our foot. After that we were divided into two teams and  we played soccer for five minutes. We learnt new soccer skills through the two sessions and feel more confident playing soccer. Our Session 3 we had a mini tournament of soccer. We were divided into four teams and 3 minutes game." Line up" Ben said. We all lined up as fast a a cheetah. 1, 2, 3, 4, as Ben counted and grouping us into groups. As we start we were energised and were keen to play hard. We all ran fast like the wind and played like a professional soccer player. We used the scissors step and dribble. We played and routed until it was over. We were all elated and returning back to class smiling.
