Demonstrate correct sprinting technique, including starting stance, arm drive, and proper running form, over a distance of 30 to 50 metres.
Perform a standing long jump and a basic chest throw (shot put style) using the movement concepts of space and dynamics.
Apply the training principles of progression, specificity, and adaptation when practising athletics events at their own pace.
Work in pairs or small groups to organise a mini athletics competition (sprint, jump, and throw stations) and record estimated times and distances in their self-journals.
