Spanish Virtual Tour: Frida Kahlo's House Tour With Spanish Teacher from México

Spanish Virtual Tour: Frida Kahlo's House Tour With Spanish Teacher from México. I created this fantastic class in March (Women's History Month) so I wanted to talk about one of the most important icons of the Spanish Heritage: Frida Kahlo. She was a fantastic painter and artist, and she remains essential nowadays. 

In this class, we will have a Spanish Reading, and a House Tour, and you will even have some after-class painting assignments to feel just like Frida.

This 40-minutes class will be divided into 4 parts:

1. First, Miss Iliana (a Mexican teacher) will give us a 2-minute Bilingual introduction to Frida's life.
2. Then, we will read about Frida in Spanish and look at her most famous paintings.
3. After that, we will visit her Mexican house, the incredible "Casa Azul" (blue house). We will see where she created her paintings, all of her trees, dresses... What an experience! We will even drink some orange juice from her orange trees.
4. Last but not least, I will send you some printables so you can color and feel like a modern-day Frida Kahlo.

This class is ESL Friendly. Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. (CEFR: all levels) Class is appropriate for CEFR: A1, A2, B1, B2 C1, C2.

All levels are welcome. Frida's art can be difficult to understand sometimes but don't worry, we will only visit the rooms of her house that are appropriate for children. We will have an amazing time and it will feel just as if we were in México. 

See you on the tour, nos vemos!

About Frida Kahlo y su casa azul:

Frida Kahlo was a Mexican artist. Her full name was Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderón. She was born in Coyoacán, near Mexico City, in 1907. Frida grew up in a bright blue house called La Casa Azul with her parents and sisters. When she was six years old she became ill with polio and her leg was permanently damaged.

Frida spent a lot of her life in and out of hospitals. She had many health problems and she suffered a lot of pain. When she was eighteen, she was in a bus accident. She broke lots of bones and she spent many months recovering. It was at this time that Frida started to paint. Many of her paintings from this time are self-portraits that show her pain and suffering.

In 1929 Frida married Diego Rivera, a Mexican artist who was famous for painting huge murals on walls. Both artists continued their work and became successful at home and abroad. After they got married, Frida started to wear traditional Mexican clothes and became interested in Mexican folk art. This influenced her paintings, which are very bright and colourful, with an original style that is very personal to Frida. However, they continued to show the pain and sadness which she experienced during her life.

Frida Kahlo died on 13 July 1954, after suffering more and more health problems. Her husband died three years later. Today Frida and Diego's home, La Casa Azul, is a very popular museum, dedicated to Frida's life and work. It displays paintings by Frida and Diego, as well as many objects from their life, to help tell the story of one of the most important artists in the twentieth century.
