You may already be aware of the truly exceptional virtual tour of Frida Kahlo’s blue house which you can see here.
This handout has 10 questions that students answer as they follow the tour, designed to make them really look and engage with what they see. The 11th question asks students to research Kahlo’s life further and write a biography.
This is an excellent way to get students to research and engage with the life and works of this seminal artist.
There are many more artist inspired lessons on The Arty Teacher.

I set up The Arty Teacher because I have a passion for my subject that I want to share with other art teachers around the world.
I have been a high school art teacher for over 20 years, so I understand what it’s like to be in front of a class of students, often with very different abilities and attitudes.
I wanted to develop resources that would help teachers to bring out the best in every student in every class. I also wanted to free-up staff from time-consuming lesson preparation to let them focus instead on delivering exciting, motivating, dynamic lessons, supported by excellent resources.
