The items listed in this appendix comprise a short list of materials evaluated recently by Saskatchewan educators and considered appropriate for support of the new Instructional Physical Education 20 and 30 curriculum. The intent of this listing is to provide teachers with suggestions for starting points towards building a wide collection of suitable support material. These resources, as well as others, will be contained in a more extensive bibliography to be disturbed during 1994.
When budgeting for the purchase of resources for the new Instructional Physical Education 20 and 30 curriculum, schools should keep in mind that textbooks represent only one form of support material. It is not always necessary or even advisable to purchase one textbook or every student. In most instances, a classroom set of textbooks is not recommended.

The Book Bureau (BB) stocks most of the key resources for Physical Education 20 and 30. Prices quoted are subject to change and do not include taxes, but will serve as a guide to approximate cost.
It is the responsibility of each school division to preview the recommended resources and to select the one that meet the needs of their particular schools and communities.
