The objective of this work is the evaluation of an interdisciplinary program to reinforce basic additive numerical combinations through activities carried out in the Physical Education Classroom during a quarter, applied to a group of 25 schoolchildren of the first Primary Education course with a parallel control group. The modelling of elementary sums is reinforced using a complex and coherent narrative scheme, and their automation is reinforced using basic numerical combinations as a “key” for performing activities associated with classroom routines. By means of descriptive analysis and in-group and intergroup inferential analysis carried out at different times of the quarter, the results show a rapid decrease in errors and counting as well as a significant (α<.05) or very significant (α<.01) acquisition of elementary calculation skills in the participating group, compared to their own initial level and with the behavior of the control group. It is concluded the effectiveness of the applied program, highlighting the use of narratives and games, the differential reinforcement of automation and significant calculation, and the importance of modeling and of the use of accounting objects.
