Kicking a Soccer Ball

I like to play soccer. The best part about soccer is kicking.

When I kick a soccer ball, I put the ball on the ground.

Then, I step back from the ball. I have to keep my eyes on the ball.

When I am ready to kick the ball, I

run to it.

When I get to the ball, I bend my knee and point

my toe.

I hit the ball on the top of my foot, with my shoe laces.

Then the ball goes flying!

You have to kick a soccer ball like this so

it goes far, and you don’t get

hurt.

I have to be careful not to hurt myself or others. I will only kick my soccer ball to other people when they are playing with me.

When I kick my soccer ball, I have to be outside.

I like kicking soccer balls because it’s fun when the ball flies in the air!
