La resiliencia, una armadura ante la adversidad: caso de los niños y niñas del grado Jardín de la Institución Educativa José María Vargas Vila

Abstract

The objective of this research was to interpret and analyze the resilience practices of boys and girls in the Kindergarten grade of the José María Vargas Vila Educational Institution, taking into account the adverse situations to which they have been or are exposed and how they are strengthened here, the different childhood subjectivities. The interest arose from my interaction as a teacher with the educational community, families, other teachers, and primarily with the boys and girls of the grade in question. In this sense, the research consisted of carrying out a qualitative exploration of a descriptive exploratory type where I was not only interested in knowing the adverse context of the boys and girls but also the way in which they face different situations from various resilience practices. Finally, with the experience of data collection, I understood that the boys and girls of the Kindergarten grade of the José María Vargas Vila Educational Institution through empathetic and supportive practices among themselves, the recognition of difference, love for the other and of themselves, they face the situations of adversity that are generated in neighborhood and family contexts. Under the previous horizon and from my role as a teacher, I understood that researching resilience practices goes beyond focusing on the behaviors that we sometimes consider problematic for boys and girls because it involves identifying and analyzing the strategies, practices and capacities that allow experience certain contexts and that also strengthen their subjective socio-emotional processes.
