Aptitud Física
Los beneficios de la salud general y el bienestar físico van más allá de nuestros cuerpos: nuestras habilidades cognitivas también mejoran con la Aptitud Física. Los estudiantes que hacen ejercicio regularmente también fortalecen sus habilidades cognitivas, lo que mejora el rendimiento académico, incluyendo el logro en matemáticas.
Ideas Principales
La Aptitud Física depende de varios aspectos importantes, incluyendo una nutrición adecuada, ejercicio regular y una cantidad adecuada de Sueño.
Las habilidades cognitivas y motoras mejoran después de participar en actividades físicas, que han demostrado ser particularmente beneficiosas para los estudiantes con TDAH, que pueden tener dificultades en estas áreas. Por ejemplo, Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades en Estados Unidos recomiendan que los niños de seis años en adelante realicen actividad física al menos 60 minutos cada día.
