    Background: Child development is the process through which boys and girls acquire motor, cognitive, social, and self-care skills. This process may be affected by prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal factors that increase the risk of disability or neurodevelopmental disorders. These conditions compromise participation in activities of daily living and therefore require a functional assessment. In this context, the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory – Computer Adaptative Test (PEDI-CAT) is a valid tool to assess functional performance and to guide intervention planning.

Methods: A quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted. Data were collected through interviews with the children´s parents and/or caregivers. Results: High Alert in the Daily Activities domain was more frequent among children aged 5-6 years, whereas in the Mobility and Social/Cognitive domains it predominated in those aged 3-4 years, who also showed higher frequencies of Low Alert in the Responsibility domain. Girls more often presented High Alert in Daily Activities and Mobility, whereas boys more often presented High Alert in Social/Cognitive and Low Alert in Responsibility. Disability was associated with High Alert in Daily Activities and Mobility, while neurodevelopmental disorders were associated with Low Alert in Responsibility.

    The purpose of the present study was of action-intervention type, whose objective has been to evaluate, intervene, and elaborate a work guide for teachers on basic notions for children with intellectual disability; from three educational institutions from the province of Azuay, canton Cuenca, by applying the Boehm test. We worked with 30 children, with a developmental age of 4 to 6 years old, comprising mild and moderate cases of intellectual disability; having also been previously evaluated by the psychologist of each institution. The number of boys was greater than the number of girls, which distributed correct and incorrect answers in a similar manner through both sexes. With the fallowing results obtained in the categories of spatial (29.44%), temporary (40%), quantity (48.04%), and others (46%), we proceeded to intervene with the children during a three month period; taking as a foundation the fallowing levels of learning: bodily, concrete, and abstract with an implementation-application of a didactic guide put at the reach of the children as a resource that complements and gives a significant support for the process of development; which combines the advantages of new technology, digital manipulation , and experiments with different sounds and images which promote the development of basic notions. To finalize our work, a second evaluation was conducted with the Boehm test, which showed an increase in knowledge of notions in the spatial (73.10%), temporary (71.74%), quantity (59.79%), and others (64.44%) categories.
