The aim of this research is to analyze the results from studies to evaluate the effects of active breaks on students’ attention, academic performance, and the levels of physical activity (PA). That is why, through preliminary research, the papers for the analysis were found in 6 different data bases (Sport Discus, Doaj, Ebsco, Google Scholar, Pubmed, Dialnet, Scopus). Moreover, only articles published between 2006 and 2020 were selected and analyzed. Thus, a total of 17 studies accomplished the proposed criteria. The studies used both physical activities as well as cognitive ones. These activities lasted about 5-15 minutes. Furthermore, the activities related to academic content and physical activities raised students’ attention. The intervention time was no less than 9 weeks; and even by doing 6-minute activities, the academic performance was effective for those subjects that do not require physical effort. Nonetheless, some other studies showed no achievement in activities that lasted about 5 minutes. Finally, it is valid to mention that activities from moderated intensity to vigorous ones helped to raise the PA levels. Hence, these outcomes show the importance of time and the type of physical activity when applying active breaks

Down Syndrome is a genetic condition that results from a trisomy of par 21 due to an unbalanced translocation of said pair, therefore there is no treatment for this syndrome, however there are certain measures that help improve their quality of life, allowing them to perform both physical and intellectual activities without problem. Since the importance of researching obesity and the health problems caused by lack of physical activity has been evidenced in recent years, including especially young people with Down syndrome, as they are a group of people with permanent special educational needs. For this reason, the objective of this study is to analyze the effects of the implementation of a popular dance program on the physical and anthropometric conditions of young people with Down Syndrome, at the Agustín Cueva Tamariz Special Educational Unit, in the city of Cuenca. Since the execution of a folk dance program helps these people maintain an optimal state of health, performing physical activity through movement and body expression, in this way it is a matter of reducing the levels of sedentary lifestyle and certain diseases associated with their condition. For this reason, an experimental study was carried out, where 21 children and young people, 13 men (41.9%) and 8 women (25.8%) with Down syndrome aged between 12 and 18 years were evaluated through a folk dance program, applying a pre and post program evaluation that allows knowing its anthropometric measures, resistance, strength, reaction capacity and physical condition. For the folk dance program a demonstrative teaching method was used and to obtain the body mass index (BMI), wingspan (EGD), waist circumference (CCi) and hip circumference (CCa) the method described by the World Health Organization (WHO). Therefore, the Harvard test was used as the only instrument, with the purpose of knowing the maximum aerobic capacity and the level of global physical condition of the participants. The materials to identify both the physical effects and the anthropometric variables were a height rod, tape measure, scale and a 38-centimeter bench to collect anthropometric data such as: height, weight, span, waisthip diameter and the application of the test. In this way, the data of the participants could be taken before and after the program

The research is non-experimental with a descriptive cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach. The SPSS v25 statistical program was used for data analysis; with the parametric statistical T-test for paired data. To calculate the descriptive statistics, the perception of the PE classes was measured using the Instrument for Measuring Satisfaction with PE classes (I.M.S.E.F). To measure the level of motivation, the Basic Psychological Needs Scale (BPN) adapted to PE was used, taking into account that the selfdetermination theory considers that the three basic and universal psychological needs of autonomy, competence and relationship with others directly influence student motivation. Deci and Ryan (2000). In addition, the International PA Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used to measure levels of PA. The results regarding the NPB satisfaction level and the relationship with PA level showed that students of the two genders with higher NPB satisfaction levels are those who have a level considered high in PA. On the other hand, with respect to the relationship between the perception of the PE classes and the level of PA, it was evidenced that the satisfaction with the sports activities and with the teacher, the women with a low level of PA are more satisfied, while the women with a moderate level of PA have the lowest degree of satisfaction with the sports activities and with the teacher. In the case of men, they are the most satisfied with the sports activities, the content and the teacher, having a high level of PA. In conclusion, students who had a higher level of PA had higher levels of motivation and satisfaction with the classes.
