Methods: The subjects were 54 first-grade students who were divided into 2 groups (experimental group and control group) at Rui-feng Elementary School in Kaohsiung City. The experimental group was received the exercise and game curriculum for 8 weeks, every morning (20 minutes), and recess (10 minutes); meanwhile, the control group did not receive the exercise and game curriculum. The two groups were received the basis motor ability test and attention test before and after the curriculum. The data collected from subjects were analyzed through descriptive statistics in order to establish basis information and the average and standard deviation of all the tests. By using paired t test and one way analysis of covariance (one way ANCOVA), the results were analyzed between the experimental group and the control group. Assuming it reached the significant level, proceeded the comparison of the average after adjustment. Results: The abilities of basic motor ability (balance, coordination, agility, speed, and power) and attention with statistically significant associations (p<.05) were affected by the exercise games in the morning and recess. The experimental group was superior to the control group. Conclusion: The exercise games in the morning and recess may effectively improve on lower grades of elementary students' basic motor ability and attention.
