Abstract: The research work is focused on people with Down syndrome since it is the most common genetic disorder worldwide, also, these people have cognitive and visual-motor disabilities, however, the Peruvian state does not use even 1% of the budget allocated to the educational sector of these people, so, by not receiving the education they can not develop their skills. Therefore, a prototype of a mobile application was designed for the learning of people with Down syndrome through interactive games, implementing the Scrum methodology for the development of the application prototype, using the Troncoso method for the teaching of reading and writing, but the teaching of visual-motor coordination was added to the method and concerning the design of the prototype, the Balsamiq tool was used because it was the most appropriate. And so the objective of developing the prototype of the application was achieved. Having as a result that people with Down syndrome can read or write basic words and differentiate the hemispheres of their body, through the unlimited attempts of the exercises, in each level or type of learning. In this way, with the teachings received, these people will have a better quality of life, being able to integrate into society, and be more independent when performing daily activities.

Keywords: Application of games; cognitive disabilities; Down’s Syndrome; scrum methodology; Troncoso Method
