Soccer Rules
I like soccer. It is fun to play. I played soccer for about six years. I got better over the years. You have to be a good sport to play. You can't brag at the other team because you will make them sad. You have to follow the rules to play. I have to kick the ball and block the ball. Some times, when we win, we get a prize.

My Horse Emma
I have a horse named Emma. She is a quarterhorse. She is brown with a white star on her fore head. I take care of my horse Emma everyday. What I do to take care of her is I ride her to give her excercize five times a week. After I ride her, I wash her off. She loves it. After I wash her off, I brush her. I have to feed her every day. I feed her hay, apples, carrots, corn on the cob, and salt. That is how I take care of my horse.

Are you Ready for some football
My friend and I usually play football at recess. We could only play two hand touch but we want to play tackle. After 15 minutes recess is over. Then we go to the classroom at 10:15. We are not happy because we want to continue to play! Soon it is time for lunch. After we eat our lunch we go to recess #2. Once again we play football! After this 2nd recess we finally have time to finish our game.

Football
Football is my favorite sport. All week at school I play football at recess. It's so fun. You can juke or you can run, but the most important part is to have fun! You also have to have great sportsmanship. In football Im known for jukeing. In football you have to defend the person with the ball if they are on your team. I hope you lerned something about my favoite sport, football.
