Abstract

The coronavirus crisis caused the closure of schools which had to adapt quickly. Schools and their teachers had to be resilient in order to transmit resilience to both families and children. Social networks were a useful tool. The study of social networks is valuable to analyze communication between school and family during confinement. The present research analyzes the content (quantitatively and qualitatively) of a social network (Instagram) of an early childhood school with Reggio Emilia philosophy during the period of confinement in Spain, to observe its link with resilience. Results show that in most publications, the school shares different contents with families to increase their resilience and well-being, also showing positive feedback from them. Among the most relevant contents, the importance of stories and music is observed, and a fundamental role of teachers. Resilience in times of crisis is a very important factor to face adversity with an adaptive attitude. Enhancement of each action in favor of resilience is positive to improve and deepen its importance.
