I introduced the fabulous Frida Kahlo to 2nd and 3rd graders for this project. We read a few books about her and studied some of her self portraits and the details inside of them. The students loved learning her life story and how she used painting as an outlet. The students got to study more about facial proportions by drawing and painting their own Frida Kahlo portrait. They also got to design fun jewelry to add to their Frida and add colorful flowers into her hair. This was a really fun lesson overall.
