Abstrakt: Extracurricular Activities of Physical Motor Expression are the starting point for students physical, social, and cognitive development. There for understanding the characteristics of Physical Motor Expression classes of AEC's (Extracurricular Activities) according to the levels of physical activity, the context of the classes and the teacher's behaviour are important elements to help teacher to organize their work. For that we used SOFIT an instrument based on direct observation, developed, and validated for the evaluation of Physical Education classes. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics. We found that the time students were standing 34% of time, and very active 18.3%. Girls demonstrated that they are more active for longer than boys. The largest proportion of class time was on practicing skills (44.6%) and games (29.4%). In class teacher spent 29.7% on observing situations. The data suggest that students spend in class the same time in motor activities and stopped, and the teacher spends his time in several didactic situations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
