This past month I taught soccer to the kids during PE time. I tried to recall all I had learned when I was 7 years old and played indoor soccer for a few years, but there wasn't much to recall. Thankfully, I found some websites that explained how to pass, shoot, and dribble correctly. I tried to make it enjoyable for the kids, but also teach them the basics. We played a fun game I found, called blob tag, In this, 2 kids are "it" and hold hands and work
together to try and knock the ball away from someone dribbling. If your ball gets knocked away you become one of the blob and go after someone else. This proved a very 
fun game that everyone enjoyed, and at times we got all tangled up playing. After doing a few drills, and fun warmup games, we would then play soccer for real. We rotated all the positions to give everyone a chance at each, and to give people an opportunity to catch their breath.Up next is football, which we start tomorrow. I tried to look online for some drills, but couldn't find much that was helpful to me in this setting. The McCoys gave me a lesson on the basics - positions, blocking, and different passing patterns, so I should be ready to go.
