(2001) 4 ©Alberta Learning, Alberta, Canada Message from the CASS 2001 World Championships in Athletics Education Committee It is our privilege to introduce "Run, Jump, Throw...and away we go!", a Kindergarten to Grade 12 teacher resource that focuses on athletic (track and field) skills. We believe the skills and activities in the resource will spark learning opportunities and motivate Alberta students to run, jump and throw. The resource, written by a team of Alberta teachers and Athletic Specialist, Dr. Linda Blade, will focus on the physical skills that form the basis of the track and field events of the 8th IAAF World Championships in Athletics. This international event will bring the world together as 3000 athletes and coaches from more than 200 countries come to Alberta in August 2001. The world will be watching as the event is broadcast globally. The resource has been developed to support implementation of the new K-12 Physical Education program of study and is intended to support the skill development related to running, jumping and throwing as they correspond to athletic events. Students can achieve General Outcome "A" Activity, and curriculum organizers "Basic Skills" and "Application of Basic Skills in Individual Activities" if provided the opportunity, teaching and time to participate and practice in the activities in this resource. Other outcomes will be addressed dependent on your program plan and context. From the outset, the focus of the 8th IAAF World Championships in Athletics, has been to create lasting legacies. This resource was made possible as a result of a focus on legacies and the partnerships between Edmonton 2001 World Championships in Athletics Organizing Committee, the College of Alberta School Superintendents, EPCOR, Esso and Alberta Learning. The intent of the resource is for teachers to receive information that enables them to facilitate learning opportunities for Alberta students so they can lead an active healthy lifestyle through running, jumping and throwing activities.
