When I was learning, it happened to me a couple times.. a VERY unpleasant sound. It hurt my soul. Make sure you use a firm foot, don't hesitate or be slow about it. Kick that sucker down. If it's still doing it, then that's a big problem.. you should get that checked out
Edit: Forgot to mention, make sure your clutch cable is adjusted properly. If it's dragging, then that might be your problem. Also when you downshift, make sure the clutch is in all the way. I was lazy once or twice and half-assed it.. that ended up with grinding
