So part are you having trouble with: the everyday examples, or the explanation?

the explanations

anonymous · Answer

OK, once you have your examples, explain that the friction force acts in the opposite direction of what ever you are trying to move against it.
One simple example is walking: As I push my foot back against the ground, the force of friction pushes me forward.
