The purpose is to establish whether activities developed in an author's language, as didactic mediation, affect the cognitive development that allows students to perform mental calculations. It is a quantitative study of a descriptive correlational type, with a target population of 63 students in basic primary education with an average age between 8 and 11 years. It concludes that there is a positive relationship between the use of activities and the development of mental computation in students.
