Observation system for active breaks in teaching, SODAE, adapted from the OSMOSTI system (Observational System of Motor Skills, Space, Time and Interaction) (Castañer et al., 2020).
| Criterion | Category | Description | |
| MOTOR SKILLS (ME) | Locomotion | LOC | Locomotion actions (eg trips) |
| Stability | STB | Actions without displacement (e.g. balancing, jumping, turns) | |
| Manipulation | MAN | Manipulative actions (with objects or persons) | |
| Combination | COM | Combination of the above motor skills | |
| No motor involvement | NMI | There is no motor component | |
| SOCIAL INTERACTION (SI) | Great group | GG | Relating in a large group |
| Small groups | SG | Relate in smaill groups | |
| In pairs | IP | Relate in pairs | |
| No social interaction | NSI | There is no relationship with others | |
| USE OF SPACE (US) | Spatial direction | CSD | Change in spatial direction |
| Spatial level | CSL | Change in the spatial level | |
| Same space | MSS | Maintain the same space | |
| Combination of space | CVP | Combination of variations in body posture/gestures and spatial direction | |
| STUDENT PARTICIPATION (SP) | The whole group | GP | The whole group (great participation) |
| High participation | HP | The whole group except 1-4 students (high participation) | |
| Average participation | AP | The entire group except 5-10 students (average participation) | |
| Low participation | LP | The whole group except 11 or + students (low participation) | |
| ACADEMIC CONTENT (AC) | Academic content | IAC | Integrated academic content |
| No academic content | NAC | There is no integration of academic content | |
