Today I finished this activity which was not really hard. I just had to use the skills that I have learnt before now, which was decimals because this game was all about money. The main point of the game was me giving their change back. When they buy something I have to figure out how much money I have to give back.  I really did like this game because it was helping me improve in my learning skills.

Skills in Football

Tuakana Explanation writing 02/08/2017

Football / Skills you should have to play the game

In a game of football there must be determination and consideration when wanting to win the game. This would mean learning a whole new set of skills and ways of trying to win. It isn’t that easy to learn new skills but here are a few.

Firstly here’s the first rule you should know, never be shy to go after the ball. If you are too scared to grab the ball then your opponent could take advantage over you. This could mean you losing a point and the other team earning one. The only way of you trying to stop the ball is to not be scared, suck in all your fear and go for it. That way everybody knows your wide and open to attack.

Secondly you must always know how to defend yourself. So let’s say you had the ball and your opponent was running straight at you, what would you do. Well if that was me I would have putted my body in between the other player and the ball. This is the only way you can defend the ball, if you didn’t do that then it’s a good steal from the other players. That is why you make sure to put your body in between your opponent and the player.

Thirdly you must also know how to control the ball. If you are just kicking it anywhere then you would easily lose. So when wanting to pass you could either use the inside and the outside of your feet. That way you are able to pass to your team mates. Also when you are wanting to stop the ball, just stomp your feet down on it, not so hard then it will stop. Giving you an opportunity to look around for the other players.

In the end if you use these skills it could actually help you one day, if you were playing a real game. Just follow these step and you could be the new Lionel Messi.
