Read the paragraph.

Suddenly though, it seemed that something scared her, or maybe she just became too confident. Each foot seemed to slide out from under her in opposite directions. She flailed her arms about wildly before landing on her side. When she tried to get up again, her feet kept shooting out from underneath her. To her credit, she kept trying!
