Si algunas vez has visitado mi página de Facebook habrás notado que soy fan de Frida Kahlo. Siempre estoy buscando maneras de incorporarla y presentarla a mis estudiantes en clase, claro manteniendo el nivel y la información que se puede compartir con estudiantes de la escuela primaria.
A Frida Kahlo se le debe mantener su reconocimiento en el mundo del arte y la historia, y tener claro que es más que una moda. A menudo su imagen es usada en diferentes espacios, en el comercio y en las redes sociales. Esto hace que sea importante que nuestros estudiantes conozcan quién fue Frida Kahlo y que no la vean simplemente como una cara interesante que anda rodando por la red y el mercado.
¿Cómo empezar?
Este recurso en mi tienda en TpT es una presentación simple sobre Frida Kahlo y su vida. El recurso incluye enlaces a videos, al museo, información específicamente para profesores y materiales para hacer la casa de papel. Pulsa sobre la foto para encontar el recurso.
Algunas preguntas de compresión que pueden ser usadas después de mostrar el recurso anterior.
1. ¿Cómo se llama la artista?
2. ¿En qué mes nació Frida? ¿En diciembre?
3. ¿De dónde era Frida Kahlo? ¿México o Colombia?
4. ¿Cuántas hermana tenía Frida?
5. ¿Cuál era su profesión? ¿Era una doctora o una pintora?
6. ¿De qué color es la casa de Frida?
¿Qué tal hacer una casita azul?
Este tutorial que encontré en YouTube muestra paso a paso como hacer una casa de papel. Lo ideal es usar papel de color azul para semejar la casa museo.
Después de tener la casa lista, los estudiantes pueden dibujar o usar fotos para llenar los espacios de la casa azul. Es recomendable seleccionar las fotos antes de la actividad para ahorrar tiempo y porque algunas fotos del museo no son recomendables para niños pequeños. Dependiendo del nivel, los estudiantes podrán escribir una descripción sobre la casa y sus cuartos.
For some reason I feel that 2022 has been the fastest year in my life. I partly attribute this to spending too much time on social media and not being fully present. I’m not a person who likes starting the new year with goals ( I used to!) because I strongly believe that setting goals and having a new beginning can be done anytime during the year, but I have decided to start 2023 with the commitment to spend less time scrolling through social media, blog more of my own ideas, and see my friends and family in person more often.
With this being said, 2022 wasn’t a bad year. I’m lucky and privileged that I got to go to my home country (Colombia) at least twice during the year, and this year I went to see places that I have never been to in my beautiful country. And the best part of it is that I got to do it with the loves of my life! ¡Mi familia!
I’m always grateful for all the support I get from readers and teachers in different parts of the United States and the world. I love the connections I have been able to make through this blog and also the friendships that have come from it! I’m grateful for you taking the time to stop by and connect here. I wish you the best in 2023!!!
And to keep my virtual tradition alive, here are my 5 most visited blog posts this year!
This is a fun song that will get everyone in your class moving. For this activity you will need a paper or puppet bunny. Place it in a bag or box, and have your students guess the name of the animal that could be inside. Once you introduce the bunny, tell the children that you have a “conejito
blanco,” and invite everyone to jump like the bunny. You also will need to pre-make some carrots (using felt or paper) to feed the bunny. Give one carrot to each child in class. Tell your students that the bunny is hungry and that they will need to feed it with their carrots. Introduce each line in the song, and start singing with everyone.
One more idea is to have each student decorate a conejito finger puppet. Click HERE to download the template. Students should cut out the shape and the circles to place on their fingers.
Last, but not least, use this activity to review or introduce colors. Print and cut out each color bunny. Give them to your students. Instead of singing “el conejito blanco,”you can sing “el conejito azul,” replacing “blanco” with different colors. The students who have that color will jump around the room.
