Perspectives of Formal Education With Children in the Face of Covid-19: The Context of Chiapas

Abstract

This article recovers the narratives of preschool and elementary education teachers in Chiapas, Mexico, through which describes and analyzes how educational processes are developing with children of rural and indigenous communities in the pandemic. The teachers narrate their personal and teaching experiences as complex, impregnated with negative emotions, as well as the difficult interactions with parents in the negotiation of formal educational practice to develop at home, and report social inequality and its impact on children’s educational attention.
